Coastal cleanup is Saturday

The 2013 Annual Coastal Cleanup program will be held in Franklin County on September 21st, so if you are free between 8:30 and 11:30 in the morning please come out and help.

The worldwide cleanup campaign helps remove thousands of pounds of trash from Franklin County beaches and millions of pounds from beaches world-wide.

In 2012 local volunteers picked up nearly 4 tons of trash from Alligator Point to Apalachicola.

This year, Volunteers will help clean up the beaches from Bald Point to St. Vincent Island including locations in Carrabelle, Eastpoint, St. George Island and Apalachicola.

We’ve posted a full list of clean-up sites at oysterradio.com and on our facebook page.

Volunteers should bring their own bug spray, sunscreen and protective clothing – they will be provided with trash bags and gloves.

There will also be snacks and water and all volunteers get a T-shirt.
