Kitty Hawk Kites is partnering with Surfrider Foundation Outer Banks Chapter for a beach cleanup event on July 14 from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Participants will meet at the Jockey’s Ridge Sound Access.
Once volunteers have checked in, they will receive gloves and cleanup bags, and will be free to clean up a stretch of beach of their own choosing. All participants will be encouraged to use the Marine Debris Tracker app to log the trash they have picked up.
Surfrider Foundation is a nonprofit environmental organization dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of the world’s oceans, waves, and beaches. Surfrider’s Outer Banks Chapter has tackled issues such as water quality and offshore energy while working to give back to the community through scholarship programs, events, and beach cleanups. All proceeds will go towards their organization and commitment to keeping our oceans and beaches clean.
