September 2009
On September 19, 2009 KIDS for the BAY staff joined the statewide efforts
for the 25th Annual Coastal Clean-Up Day at Meeker Slough along the San Francisco
Bay shoreline in Richmond. Since the clean-up event started in 1985, over
800,000 Californians have removed more than 13 million pounds of debris from
our state's shorelines and coast. When combined with the International Coastal
Clean-Up, organized by The Ocean Conservancy and taking place on the same
day, California Coastal Clean-Up Day becomes part of one of the largest volunteer
events of the year. KIDS for the BAY is proud to be a part of the solution
for clean and healthy shorelines and waterways.
