Asbury Park Beach Cleanup




On Saturday, May 15th,
eight A2Z volunteers drove down to the Asbury Park Beach to participate
in a beach cleanup, as a part of the state-wide Adopt-a-Beach Program. Every year,
the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection allows volunteers
to “adopt” one of New Jersey’s many beaches, thereby removing any
harmful materials from the beach that threaten the local environment
while keeping the coastline beautiful at the same time.
Together,
the volunteers spent two hours picking up all sorts of debris from the
beach, including paper/plastic bags, food wrappers, beverage cans and
bottles, and other left-over trash. All of the volunteers shared a
large sense of pride and accomplishment after witnessing the difference
they had made to the Asbury Park Beach . It turned out to be a very fun
day!
