Keep Seal Beach Clean This (And Every) Weekend

SEAL BEACH, CA — We are blessed to live where other people only vacation. Still, there is nothing that jars you more from your staycation vibe than the sight of other people's trash littering the shoreline. Are you the sort to tut your tongue and walk away, thinking, "Not my problem!" or are you one to bring a trash sack and fill it before you go?

Plastic trash and other items continually wash in on the waves, and yes, chances are it isn't you that put it there. Still, be a good neighbor and if you see something, don't just say something. Do something about it.

The Rule of 3.

When you go to the beach, pick up no fewer than three pieces of trash to deposit in a receptacle on your way out of town.

A bottle cap. A paper cup. A plastic baggie.

Or more.

You'll feel lighter for having done a good deed, plus, it'll do good for your soul, knowing that you've left your local beach better for your having been there.
