Come out to help stop the Crap Creep! Captain Matt will be helping intercept plastic puke from our inundated sewer system. All drains lead to Ocean. There is almost as much trash in our oceans as marine life.

Some things are better left unseen. Sometimes we wish the Glove Boat was a pre plastic time Machine
