Keeping our Port beaches clean

It’s amazing how much rubbish collects in and under the piers along our beach front but what’s more amazing are the great group of people that come down to the beach once a month to conduct a clean.  I’ve met lots of local residents and lots of people who want to make our lovely neck of the woods even lovelier.  Last Saturday (11 April) over 20 people met at Prices Pier and in one hour alone collected approximately 150kgs of plastic, styrofoam and other assorted rubbish from First Point Beach and from under the Princes Pier itself.  After collecting the rubbish we retired to the veranda of the cafe at the Station Pier tram stop for a coffee and a chat.  A lovely morning and a great feel good factor.  If you’re keen to meet some lovely people and help keep Port clean sign up for the Beach Patrol mailing list by emailing 3207@beachpatrol.com.au.
