Help Us Preserve 1,000,000 acres by donating at least $1 Today!
More than 1,000 volunteers from Stater Bros. Markets, Coca-Cola, and the community raked sand, removed 489 pounds of trash and hand-picked debris from 1.5 million square feet of sand along Huntington State Beach on Saturday, April 14, 2012. Also, 20 planters were weeded, removing non-native species and a fence around the Least Tern Colony was repaired, which protects the endangered birds.
The day’s activities represents 3,000+ volunteer hours, which calculates to a $25,000 savings in labor costs to Southern California State Parks, significant in a time of severe budget pressures.
Volunteers and children also painted 25 rain barrels for the parks, created from repurposed Coca-Cola syrup barrels.
