Please contact Stinger prior to attending a beach cleanup to let him know to expect you, preferably at least two days before.  This will insure that, if there is an emergency change or cancellation in the schedule, he can then notify you.

•  Bags, gloves, and other equipment will be provided.

•  Wear appropriate clothing for the weather and footwear for walking over sand, cobble, and driftwood.

•  Schedule can change due to adverse weather conditions.

•  A one-day volunteer park access pass is available for volunteers who do not have a Washington State Parks Discovery Pass.
