Thank you to all our volunteers and zone captains last year and we hope you will join us again this year! Download the official 2012 registration form, fill it out, and fax it back to us! This form is required for Mississippi residents under the age of 21. Non-Mississippi residents 18 and older are not required to fill out a registration form. The form is optional, but encouraged, for our adult volunteers, particularly for large groups. The 24th Annual Mississippi Coastal Cleanup took place on Saturday, October 20, 2012. More than 2,500 volunteers collected 2,503 bags (54,680 pounds) of trash along 199 miles of Mississippi Gulf Coast and barrier islands (2012 final results) waterways. The cleanup focuses on the Coast's mainland and barrier island beaches and waterways as well as lakes, rivers, marshes, bayous, estuaries, and other watershed locations in the marine waters extending as far north as Interstate 10. The 2012 Cleanup included 68 sites in Hancock, Harrison and Jackson counties and the barrier islands. Cleanup zone captains supply volunteers with trash bags, data cards, pencils, and plastic gloves. Each zone captain wears a yellow zone captain T-shirt so that volunteers can easily spot them on cleanup day. Please feel free to print out the data card and read it over. On cleanup day, each pair of volunteers will receive a data card like this to identify the trash they pick up. You must complete the data card and turn it in to your zone captain to receive your thank you gift. También tenemos una tarjeta de datos en Español para nuestros voluntarios Hispanos! If you are interested in advertising the Cleanup, we invite you to print out and post these 2012 flyers and 2012 posters. Please remember to obtain permission before advertising on someone's property! Below is an important message from the members of the Mississippi Marine Debris Task Force. We encourage all of our visitors to take a moment and view this brief clip (less than 2 minutes). |
