(make sure to pick "Dockweiler State Beach") ! We'll have them at the beach. But, please print it out at home/work, sign it, and bring it with you. It'll speed up the registration process at the beach. You'll receive a link to the PDF file from Heal the Bay if you have registered through EventBrite. We'll post it here when it's available. Also, if you can, please bring your own gloves such as gardening gloves and a bucket! We'd like to reduce the trash! (we DO have some reusable gloves and bags though). We will set up the registration table on the sand next the 1st parking lot between the parking kiosk and the public restroom near Tower 55. When you go to the registration table, you are going to have to cross the BIKE PATH. PLEASE WATCH OUT FOR THE BIKES! PLEASE DO NOT HANG OUT ON THE BIKE PATH. PLEASE DO NOT BLOCK THE BIKE PATH! Bikes are faster than you think, and they can't stop as fast as you think. So please be very careful. We have great amenities at Dockweiler Beach!
1. Free parking at the beach parking from 8:30 am to 1 pm. please print out the permit and put it on your car dashboard: (TBA - we'll post a parking permit on our FB page)
2. Free restrooms and showers (cold) nearby.
3. Free drinking water, sunscreen, etc. behind the registration table. Bring your own water bottle!
4. Bike racks for your bikes near the restrooms. Please bring your own locks!
6. Raffle prizes!
7. Free smiles :)

Again, this site is run by Heal the Bay volunteers. If you'd like to help us in any way, please send a message to Terumi ([email protected]) or contact CCD coordinator at [email protected]. Thank you!

🀫 Psst… wanna know a little CCD secret?

Did you suddenly decide you want to join us for Coastal Cleanup Day tomorrow? 🌊🧀

Good news: You can still come! πŸŽ‰

You do NOT have to preregister to participate. Just show up at the beach and sign the waiver online when you arrive. That’s it!

πŸš— And don’t forget your parking pass!

It is now available in our bio! Just click the link there to download it, print it and bring it with you. Otherwise, you’ll have to pay the full $13 parking fee at the kiosk. 😬

So if it’s 11:30 Friday night and your friend suddenly says,
β€œI wanna come too!”

Tell them: YES, YOU CAN. 😎

πŸ‘‰ Follow us so you don’t miss the parking pass or any other last-minute CCD info!

See you at Dockweiler State Beach Tower 54! πŸŒŠπŸ’™

Beach cleanups aren’t just about picking up trash. We can clean the beach today, but more trash will keep coming unless we stop it at the source.

Of course, safety is our top priority, but the Safety Talk is about more than just safety. It’s also about learning how trash reaches our beaches and ocean, and what each of us can do in our everyday lives to help prevent it.

So please give us just 5 minutes before you grab your cleanup supplies and head out to clean! What you learn during those few minutes can make an impact long after the cleanup is over. πŸŒŠπŸ’™
