MRC International Coastal Cleanup Day

The International Coastal Cleanup began more than 30 years ago when communities rallied together with the common goal of collecting and documenting the trash littering their coastline. The Marine Resources Council in collaboration with Keep Brevard Beautiful, and the Ocean Conservancy, invites you to join in for this year’s cleanup.

To RSVP please visit https://mrccleanupday.eventbrite.com/?aff=cal or call 321-725-7775. The supplies for this event are allocated for each site based on these registrations, so it is very important for you to register. Thank you for your support!
