Volunteers have a plethora of choices this year—check the list below and see what piques your interest. Thank you!

Meet at the Third Lagoon Preserve trailhead located at the end of Cattle Point Road to help clear plastic rubbish from the back of the lagoon.

SJI: Deadman Bay Preserve, 2:00pm to 4:00pm
Meet at Deadman Bay beach. Volunteers will tackle the drainage below the roadside where lots of debris collects throughout the year.

Lopez Island: Multiple Locations
Meet at Lopez Community Center between 9am-10 am to register and choose from 11 beaches and 9 road side areas that need your help, including Weeks Wetland @ Fisherman Bay Preserves.

*There will be a complimentary yoga class from 8am-8:45 am preceding the registration!

Sturdy rubber boots, pants, and gloves are recommended. Carpooling is encouraged. The Land Bank will provide garbage bags, buckets, and some snacks.

Orcas Island: Multiple Locations
