Earth Day Cleanup – Seacoast Science Center Marine Mammal Rescue Run

Description

Clean the beach after the Rescue Run: Race of Marine Mammals to celebrate Earth Day and protect marine life from litter! Meet at the Blue Ocean Society table near the white tent on the far side of Seacoast Science Center. Please note there are parking fees set by NH State Parks to enter Odiorne Point State Park for this cleanup. Register at https://www.blueoceansociety.org/cleanup/. All ages are welcome, although children should be supervised at all times due to the sharp nature of items on the beach. Please bring gloves to the cleanup. Reusable gloves like gardening gloves, work gloves, and thin winter gloves work well. When possible, we aim to avoid single-use gloves to reduce our contributions to the plastic pollution problem. We tally all the debris we collect during all of our cleanups using data cards. Please arrive 10-15 minutes early so we can begin these cleanups on time. Thank you to our co-host and the Ocean Conservancy for their support of these cleanups.
