No doubt all of our beaches will be in desperate need of help on Sunday morning. I say pick the closest one to you and go to work.

Thanks for posting this Barry. I’m off my notification rocker right now. Too much to do, not enough time. :)

For anyone thinking of showing up to help:

Join Surfrider San Mateo County Chapter of Sierra Club Loma Prieta Chapter, and the
LIVE 105 Action Team for another beach cleanup, Sunday July 5th from
12noon—2pm at Montara State Beach in Montara for our annual post 4th
of July cleanup!

We’ll provide gloves and bags (but if you want to bring your own, go
for it!) plus there’ll be free tickets to the advance screening of
Bruno, passes to the Alameda County Fair and other fun freebies from
LIVE 105 (while supplies last) for whoever finds the coolest piece of
used firework or hauls out the most garbage!

Sign in at the Surfrider table in the parking lot just north of the
old Outrigger restaurant. And bring your board if you want to ride
the wild surf at Montara after the cleanup!

Thanks for cleaning up our beaches and remember…no trash, no rash!
