Can I lead a clean up?
Leading a clean up is really easy. You need to be at the site early, greet the volunteers, pass out supplies, tell people where to clean up. With a few helping hands we can be done quickly and get back to our family and our dogs.

What should I bring?
Bring a sweater, recycle your plastic bags for picking up, a shovel or trowel, a pair of gloves and a smile. We will supply some tools, bags and goodies.

What should I wear?
Wear old work clothes.

Will we meet in the rain?
We will meet drizzle or shine. If it is pouring rain, please plan on meeting us for the next month's work party or volunteering for another event.

How long will it take?
Depending on how many volunteers show up it will take between one to two hours. You will have time to talk with other dog owners during and after the work party.

Can I bring my dog and/or my kids?
You'll need to focus on the work at hand for an hour or so. If you bring the kids or the dog, make sure you have someone to help watch over them.

Where can I park?
You'll need to park where you can find a spot and walk to the clean up areas. Look at the map on the location's page and usually there is parking nearby.
Locations: Hooper's Beach, Rispin Mansion, Depot Hill, Park Ave

Should I bring food and drinks to share with the other volunteers?
