Come and volunteer for the 35th Annual Beach/River Sweep and help keep our beautiful Daniel Island looking great and healthy (and earn Service Hours)! Look for the tables set up on the gravel path across from DI’s Waterfront Park to register in person and check-in. You’ll sweep at low tide: 2:00 PM until 4:00 PM, to be able to get near the marshes, but don’t risk picking up big pieces. Safety first! Young ones should stick to sidewalks, bushes and trails.
- All are welcome. No advanced registration required; just show up.
- Wear a hat, sunscreen, closed-toe shoes, long pants and sleeves, bug spray. Bring water to keep hydrated.
- SC Sea Grants provides garbage bags and some gloves. Bring your own plastic gloves, if possible, and a trash picker if you have one.
- “Tally Forms” to keep track of the type of litter you’ll collect are provided. These forms are provided by S. C. Sea Grant Consortium.
- Bring a pen or pencil.
- Participation counts for SERVICE HOURS (bring your volunteer forms or use ours)
- The event could use a volunteer to take pictures.
- One research credit can be awarded to one or two students willing to collate and present the data.
