This is a great community service project to support our environment. All scouts and families to please wear your troop t-shirt and/or sweatshirt and arrive at 8am. We will do beach clean-up first, then have a Troop BBQ afterwards. Feel free to bring fun beach games/activities as we will have some fun family/troop time after the clean-up. Please see the following link for a map of the area http://hsbsurfrider.org/huntington-st and be sure to let the parking attendant know that you are there to participate in the Surfrider Foundation Beach Clean-Up. Enter the beach parking lot at Huntington Street and Pacific Coast Highway (PCH). This is the beach area right across PCH from the Hilton Waterfront Beach Resort. The Surfrider Foundation tents will be set up on the beach right near Jack's Beach Concessions & Bike Rentals and the Troop will have a tent set-up close-by. Yours in Scouting!
