With the summer crowds simmering down and visitors depart after the busy season, our local beaches are typically left ravaged by discarded waste and garbage. Due to the challenges of the ongoing pandemic, it’s rather tough trying to coordinate beach sweeps for the cleanup, which is why Clean Ocean Action is doing the next best thing! They’ll be hosting ‘The Ocean is Calling‘ virtual celebration on Thursday, October 22.
The Ocean is Calling …Are you Listening? Join Clean Ocean Action for a Virtual Celebration of 35 Years of Beach Sweeps on Thursday, October 22nd from 6:30 – 7:30pm! The festive evening will include memorable tales and colorful characters from COA’s rich history and will honor the First Lady of New Jersey Tammy Murphy for her Climate Change Education. Hosted by Tim McLoone, the event features an exclusive silent auction and will include a toast from celebration sponsor Tito’s Handmade Vodka.
