Epic Vashon Beach Clean-up

Join the Vashon Rotary Club and island partners for a global day of action! As part of Rotary's Epic Day of Service, we will join thousands of others around the world to make a difference in our communities. On Vashon-Maury Island, we are tackling beach pollution and we need your help! In addition to cleaning up all the plastic and other trash on Vashon beaches, we will be focusing on rogue beach tires. We are also working with Artist Addie Boswell who will be transforming lots of the beach trash into works of art (see below). We are in the process of working with island residents and organizations to identify which segments of the 52 miles of Vashon shorelines need the most attention and the locations of rogue beach tires. Please let us know if you can help with these tasks well in advance of May 17th. Also, let us know if you can volunteer in the beach clean-up on the May 17th collection event (in the time period 9AM-4PM)-we will provide bags and instructions. Collection staging areas are Jensen Point on the Burton Peninsula (confirmed with Vashon Park District and Vashon Rowing Club) and Dockton Park parking area on Maury Island (confirmed with King County Parks).
