If you’re looking to get out of the house and do something to give back, head down to Seal Beach for a beach clean up this Saturday.
A group of volunteers will be meeting on Saturday at the 1st Street Beach Parking Lot (as you enter the parking lot, you’ll see 3 blue canopies and that’s where you register). Parking is free if you’re helping out.
If the parking lot is full, you can park on any of the residential streets close by, even though it’s marked 1 hour for this day only.
The clean up usually gets more than 100 people. UC Irvine will have about 20 students, the Northwood High, Irvine “National Honor Society” will have 50, and Disney VoluntEars will have about the same.
When: 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday
Where: 1st Street Beach Parking Lot, Seal Beach
