Help clean up Franklin County's coastline this Saturday

The 2018 Annual Coastal Cleanup program will be held in Franklin County on Saturday, September 15th, 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.

Last year nearly 390 volunteers took part in the event and removed nearly 3 and a half tons of debris from local shorelines.

Volunteers will help clean up the shorelines from 18 locations reaching from Bald Point to St. Vincent Island including locations in Lanark Village, Carrabelle, Eastpoint, Apalachicola and St. George Island.

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

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

You can see a full list of clean-up locations and meeting sites posted on the Oyster Radio facebook page and at oysterradio.com.
