2009 Alabama Coastal Cleanup
Its time again for the annual Alabama coastal cleanup. The cleanup will be staged as last year at the Baldwin County Bayside Park on County Road 99South, on Saturday, September 19 from 8:00am until noon.
Participants please remember to wear appropriate attire; shoes, hats, sunglasses, sunscreen, etc... You will receive a tee-shirt, patch, and decal. Also, food and drinks will be provided.
Last year volunteers removed 3,747 pounds of litter and debris from approximately 4.5 miles of beach between the mouth of Soldier Creek and Grassy Point, located north of the Lillian bridge. Our efforts were highlighted by the discovery of what has been identified by archaeologists at UWF as an 8,000-10,000 year old Native American projectile point, which will be on display along with other artifacts found locally.
Lack of public access to the beach south of US Hwy 98 has made it difficult to get to many areas. Special thanks to private property owners who allowed us to use their property to access the beach and without whom our efforts would not have been as successful.
Any person, group or organization interested in supporting this invaluable effort or needs information, please call 961-7900.
