Thank you to all our volunteers and zone captains last year and we hope you will join us again this year! Download the official 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 20th Annual Mississippi Coastal Cleanup took place on Saturday, October 18, 2008. More than 2,295 volunteers collected 142,235 pounds of trash along 132 miles of Mississippi Gulf Coast and barrier islands (2008 final results) waterways. The cleanup, which usually focuses on the Coast's mainland and barrier island beaches and waterways, has expanded to include lakes, rivers, marshes, bayous, estuaries, and other watershed locations in the marine waters extending as far north as Interstate 10. The 2008 Cleanup included more than 58 sites in Hancock, Harrison and Jackson counties. 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. Zone captains may also wish to have a look at the Zone Captain's Handbook (14 MB). We also have a data card in Spanish for our Hispanic volunteers! If you are interested in advertising the Cleanup, we invite you to print out and post these flyers and posters. Please remember to obtain permission before advertising on someone's property! |
