April 25
9 a.m. – 1 p.m.
The PTMSC annual Earth Day beach cleanup brings volunteers together from far and wide to clean the beaches and roadways in our area.
In partnership with WA CoastSavers, volunteers will collect debris and contribute data on their findings to the Ocean Conservancy’s international database. Learn about the impact of past cleanups on our webpage, Coastal Cleanups.
Check-in locations
Join us at either of our check-in locations: Fort Worden State Park or Chimacum Corner Farmstand
At these, you will be given directions to beach locations and supplies like trash bags and gloves.
Fort Worden State Park:
From 9 a.m. – 1 p.m., you will find our check-in table outside the PTMSC Museum Building. This is the second building on the left, past the pier.
From here, we will be sending participants to local beaches throughout Port Townsend.
Please note: A Discover Pass is required to park at Fort Worden State Park.
We would like to encourage everyone to purchase a Discover Pass, but if this is a barrier in any way, we are happy to provide you with a pass for this event.
They will be available at the registration table, and need to be returned when you check back in to weigh the trash you’ve collected.
Chimacum Corner Farmstand:
From 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. you will find our check-in table in the parking lot at 9122 Rhody Dr.
Addition Cleanup Option:
Remote Cleanup! Are you feeling up for trekking a few miles on the beach and carrying a load of debris on your back? Well, this option is for you! We are putting together one or two small groups to clean up more remote beach locations. For more information on what this would entail, reach out to Mandi at mjohnson@ptmsc.org.
Return to your check-in location
Return and we will weigh your accomplishments!
As our way of saying thanks, the first 150 participants will receive a $5 gift card for the PT Food Coop and a coupon for a $1-off a drink to be redeemed at either Keg & I in Chimacum or Pourhouse in Port Townsend.
Thank you to our amazing sponsors PT Food Co-op for their support!
Thank you to Olympic Disposal for their donated trash services!
