Annual Creek and Coastal Cleanup

The Annual Creek and Coastal Cleanup will take place on September 17, 2005, 8:30 am to noon.  We will gather at the Martinez Shoreline at the end of Ferry Street.  Teams will go out from there to pre-scouted locations along Carquinez Strait and into the Alhambra Creek Watershed to clean up trash.  Martinez City Crews will pick up the retrieved trash and take it away for proper disposal.  We will celebrate our accomplishments with a barbeque at noon.

Come join in this community-building environmental event!   Wear mud-tolerant clothing and sturdy shoes and bring gloves.  For more information call (510) 544-2590 or visit http://www.ebparks.org.
