Opportunity Details
Treasure the Beach
2024 marks the 20th year of Treasure the Beach, monthly beach cleanups occuring on the first Saturday of every month in Seaside, Oregon.
There’s nothing better than wiggling your toes in the sand, hearing the cry of the seagulls overhead and tasting the salty ocean mist. When the beach is dirty, though, it can dampen the experience for everyone. Approximately 14 billion pounds of garbage — from water bottles to food wrappers — are discarded into the ocean each year. Beach trash isn’t just unsightly; it’s dangerous to wildlife and for kids and bare feet. Luckily, visitors and local volunteers are playing a huge role in keeping our beaches clean.
