Bayfront Beach Cleanup!
April 8, 2017 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm
Come join us for Earth Month with Surfrider of Hilo and participate in a local beach cleanup. Bring your kids bring your friends bring your enthusiasm!
Show up and get together and help out in hilo on this Saturday! Please be there at 11 AM sharp so we can all be part of the briefing and start together, as well as be in the group photo. We will clean up for a few hours and wrap things up at 1. We are working on having a DJ come and play some motivational music for us … to add to the fun. We will provide some refreshments and light snacks, so please bring your own reusable drinking container. We will have a few giveaways for early birds and most trash collected, by Hilo Surfboard Co, OASIS Skate Shop, dbPhoto, Kona Brew. Also, we would love to encourage everybody to become a member of Surfrider. Only $30 for a year, and at this point we are offering a special because every person that signs up will walk away with a free Surfrider hat, a reusable bag, and a sticker (valued at $35)
What a deal! While
Supplies last! Every new member that signs up will also have their name put into a drawing that will be held at a fundraiser later this year. Grand prizes include a huge Clark Little wave metal print, and a Wooden Classics custom WOOD surfboard!
Please come participate come connect and help us build a team so that we can do other fun community events in our community. We need positive and motivated people like you!
All the data of the items and trash we collect will be inputted into a national database.
We want to encourage members of the community to get together and support events like this so we can grow our efforts, have bigger events and of course not forget to have fun while doing it.
We will have a tent set up on bayfront, hilo side of the canoe halaus, next to the judge stand at the far end of the beach. Look for the blue tent and Surfrider banner. We will have some video and photo taken of this cleanup and encourage anyone to participate in an interview to be used in a mini documentary about our oceans and marine debris. Come
Early to be part of the group photo with a drone!
Remember to have fun while helping out!
See you there!
