Last year almost 2,300 volunteers removed over 270,000 pounds of litter from Brevard County road sides, shorelines and neighborhoods. Volunteers should check in at Nance Park. All cleanup supplies will be provided. A sense of friendly competition is being promoted with prizes offered by Waste Management based on the increase in volunteer participation. There will also be two roving patrols covering the beach between Nance Park and Eighth Avenue.
County supervisors caution swimmers to be wary of ocean tides.
Dangerous undertows can occur in our area where there are drop-offs 10 to 20 feet off shore. Please swim near a lifeguard, never swim alone and check with the lifeguards for ocean conditions.
