NAVARRE — International Coastal Cleanup in Santa Rosa County is set Saturday, Sept. 16, 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. in Navarre Beach.
“Trash doesn’t fall from the sky, it falls from human hands, and human hands have the power to stop it,” a media release states. “You, your friends, family and colleagues can make a difference through this remarkable experience of international camaraderie on behalf of the world’s oceans. You can help stop plastics, cigarette butts, fishing gear and countless other items from choking our beaches and oceans and endangering marine life.”
A Clean Community representative will be on site to register participants and provide trash bags. Bring water and wear a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen if you want to participate. Meet organizers at the pavilion next to the Navarre Beach Fishing Pier.
