Registration Open For International Coastal Cleanup and Halifax/Indian River Cleanup

DeLand, FL – The Volusia County Environmental Management Division is looking for volunteers to remove trash from beaches, rivers, and parks on Saturday, September 18, 2021. Volusia County residents and visitors can think globally and act locally during the 2021 International Coastal Cleanup and Halifax/Indian River Cleanup. Registration is open and will close on August 27 at 11 a.m.  You can find the link to register at volusia.org.  Register as soon as you can for the site you want to work at because the first 1,500 registered volunteers will receive a commemorative clean-up giveaway. There are 17 sites, ranging from Highbridge Road in Ormond Beach to River Breeze Park in Oak Hill. You’ll find the selection with the registration form.  Each site has a maximum capacity. When it’s reached, you’ll have to choose a different site. If you need to make any changes, such as the number of people or the location, call Volusia County Environmental Management at 386-736-5927 and speak to Christie Miller or email VolunteerVolusia@volusia.org.  Volunteers are encouraged to use the Ocean Conservancy’s data collection app, which can be downloaded to your phone, and be ready to clean at your selected site. A paper tally card will be available if you choose not to download the app.
