[CINC] COASTAL CLEAN UP DAY-Saturday!

[Lisa Anderson]

Also bring your own refillable water bottle-we are trying to be more
eco-friendly!! Yeah!! I've complained about this for 6 years now-so we are
going in a completely different direction!! I promise it will be good
water-NOT Ventura water!! :0)

It would be awesome to see all those CINC'ers  with their own trash
collection, and water containers-we need to set the example!!

We have limited t-shirts this year (we couldn't afford them last year :0(  

Please come and help keep our oceans and Ventura River clean!!

This is a reminder about the annual Coastal Clean Up Day on Saturday,
September 25 from 9 a.m.-12 p.m..  Wear your uniform and get CINC volunteer
hours at the following sanctuary and park sponsored locations (or at any
beach you choose):

Ventura Co.:

*	Emma Wood State Beach (Site captain:  Lisa Anderson, CINC)  Meet on
Main Street to camp entrance; meet at kiosk.
*	Ventura Harbor  (Sponsored by:  Channel Islands Park Foundation)
You may sign up at CINP Visitor Center that morning to be part of National
Public Lands Day.  You will receive a free coupon for one day's entrance to
a national park.


Santa Barbara Co.

*	Santa Claus Lane Beach (Site captain:  David Telleen-Lawton, CINC)
Meet towards the west entrance of Santa Claus Lane, close to the street.
*	Gaviota State Beach (Site captain:  Sandra Squires, CINC)  Meet by
the lifeguard tower.


Wear sunscreen, shoes, and hat. When you check in at the cleanup location,
you will be given trash bags, pencils, and a special data card to tally the
items you collect. If at all possible, bring your own
<http://www.coastal.ca.gov/publiced/ccd/ccd28.html>  container for
collecting trash, such as a reusable bucket, a milk jug with the top cut
off, or a reused shopping bag. You can also bring your own work gloves. With
a little effort, you can help move us closer to being a zero waste event by
reducing the <http://www.coastal.ca.gov/publiced/ccd/ccd28.html>  amount of
disposable trash bags and gloves discarded on Coastal Cleanup Day. 

Data collection is important! Your data goes into the Ocean Conservancy's
international database, which is used to identify the sources of debris and
to help devise solutions to the marine debris problem. Be sure to return
trash, recyclables and your data card to the beach or site captain after the
cleanup. 


Thank you!!!
