The Friends July Oleta Cleanup Challenge & Celebration
The Friends will host another shoreline cleanup on July 12 at Oleta River State Park. We are partnering with our wonderful local community for an innovative and fun Cleanup Challenge Event. After we'll finish up together with a Celebration of our hard work with some snacks and treats! It will be a special cleanup day focusing on biodiversity with some games and challenges added in to make for extra fun and excitement - and some competition for this active group :) We begin with signing in & some info sharing @9AM- with Starbucks generously donating yummy coffee (plus a surprise gift for our early-risers/first-comers). At the end, we will all relax and snack on food to be donated by the great Vocelli Pizza and great Kabobji Restaurant - who have very fresh and delish food by the way. We are very thankful for this opportunity to come together with volunteers, as a community, to take care of Oleta and all the special natural places nearby, which are hurt by the excess of trash and litter. Please make sure to wear solid shoes/sun protective clothes/hat/sunscreen and gloves. Please bring a REFILLABLE WATER BOTTLE. We will supply cold water refills. NO SINGLE USE PLASTIC bottles allowed at this litter-free event. COMMUNITY SERVICE credits available to students volunteering. Kids under 15 MUST be supervised by adult.
