Miami Beach Lummus Park 10th Street with Team USCG | International Coastal Cleanup 2022

Help Team Coast Guard Keep our Beaches Clean at our Lummus Park 11th Street SoBe Cleanup Site!!!

Family, friends, co-workers, and associates are invited and encouraged to join eco-conscious Coasties in our on-going efforts to protect and preserve our oceans and waterways during the 37th annual International Coastal Cleanup Day.

Spearheaded globally by the Ocean Conservancy, VolunteerCleanup.org organizes Miami-Dade County’s local participation in this worldwide event with 50+ shoreline cleanups around the county. The 2022 Miami-Dade ICC is made possible by the generous support of our Presenting Sponsors Covanta and the Rickenbacker Marina, our Strategic Sponsors Blackstone Charitable Foundation, Verizon, and the Benjamin & Gloria Joannou, Jr. Family Conservation Fund, our Core Sponsors Miami-Dade County RER-DERM and Pubbelly Sushi, and our Supporting Sponsor Greenberg Traurig and the Consulate General of Canada.

Join us for the world's largest, one-day volunteer effort, and show your commitment to reducing marine debris, along with volunteers from across the globe!

Please arrive no later than 8:45am.  Volunteers will meet your Site Captain (Nichole) at the entrance of Lummus Park on 11th Street and Ocean Drive.  Upon arrival, you will collect your cleanup supplies and gather into groups.  Volunteers will be briefed on safety and data collection instructions at 8:55am.  Cleanup will wrap-up at 12:00pm.  You are encouraged to carpool as parking on SoBe can be quite the task.
