Local Resident to Host Second Annual Shoreline Sweep

With the weather warming up over the weekend, East Hampton residents can now get the chance to get outdoors and do some good.

Luckily, Dell Cullum, Amagansett resident and founder of ImaginationNature.com, will be hosting his second annual Shoreline Sweep along the East Hampton shoreline on Saturday, April 11.

Volunteers who wish to participate can meet at one of the several spots at 9 a.m.

The areas that will be cleaned include:

• Wainscott Beach (Beach Lane)
• Georgica Beach
• Main Beach (east or west)
• Wiborg Beach (Highway behind Pond Road)
• Egypt Beach (Old Beach Road - Maidstone Club)
• Two Mile Hollow Beach
• Indian Wells Beach
• Atlantic Avenue Beach (Amagansett)
• Napeague Beach (Napeague Lane)
• White Sands Beach
• Hither Hills State Park Beach
• Gurney’s Inn Beach
• Montauk Beach (Kirk Park/Umbrella Beach)
• Ditch Plains Beach
• Camp Hero/Montauk Point (Cliff Crew)

“This is a time for celebration and before we do just that, how about we all get together and give our most precious play ground a clean sweep before we kick off the seasons of fun in the sun,” Cullum wrote on his website.

Several groups will be joining to help out including the Custodians of Lazy Point who will be cleaning the Lazy Point and Walking Dunes area and those roads leading to; the Amagansett Chamber of Commerce; the East End Surfer Girl; the East Hampton Ocean Rescue; the East Hampton Lifeguards; the East Hampton Middle School Junior Surfrider Club; the Surfrider Foundation; the East Hampton High School Interact Club; East Hampton Students earning Community Service and Jack’s Stir Brew Coffee.

For those looking for a needed location, Montauk Point to Camp Hero, or the Montauk beaches toward Gurneys, or Gurneys to Napeague State Park is still looking for people to help clean.

Participants are asked to bring gloves, a couple bags, and grabbers and pokers if necessary.
