Hello! and Thank you, to all the volunteers that came out and made Wildwood’s Poplar Ave site for Clean Ocean Action’s Beach Sweep a success!
(and thank you to all the folks that went to other sites all over New Jersey as well!)
This year, Wildwood’s Poplar Ave had 117 volunteers, who collected 46 bags of trash, and a pile of bulk trash like buckets, wood, and plastic cartons.
The top 5 objects found were: Plastic Pieces- 684, Glass Pieces- 568, Caps and Lids- 430, Straws and Stirrers, 411 and Food/Candy wrappers/bags- 380.
We had volunteers from Comcast, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Cape May County Technical School, Wildwood High School, Rowan University, and volunteers from the community, neighborhood, and even as far away as Pennsylvania.
