Are you interested in volunteering in the Ocean Conservancy’s 27th Annual International Coastal Cleanup this weekend?  This cleanup has been coordinated by Clean Virginia Waterways for the last 17 years, and is also sponsored by City’s Department of Transportation and Environmental Services (T&ES) Office of Environmental Quality (OEQ) and Alexandria Crew Boosters for this annual statewide event to clean our waterways and collect valuable data about trash and litter in our waterways.  We will be cleaning Oronoco Bay Park – rain or shine.

Oronoco Bay Park is located at 100 Madison Street in Alexandria’s Old Town area.  Volunteers will meet and sign in at the end of Madison Street near the Rowing Clubhouse.

What to wear?

Volunteers should wear shoes and clothes that they do not mind getting dirty; trash bags and gloves will be provided.

Volunteers should RSVP to jesse.maines@alexandriava.gov.  Registration will also occur at the end of Madison Street on Saturday morning.
