Join us for our first cleanup of the year! Bring your friends, family, and furry besties to kick off the season and celebrate Earth Day!

On Saturday, April 19th, Surfrider Foundation Vancouver in partnership with Sea Smart, will be cleaning up and sorting the waste collected at Hadden Beach, and we need your help! Our cleanups are a fun and easy way to connect and build a strong community of coastal defenders!

You just have to sign our waiver here and show up!

You can help as a BEACH CLEANUP VOLUNTEER, we supply buckets and hand pickers, or you can bring your own (tongs work great too!). Alternatively, you can join us as a LITTER SORTER VOLUNTEER and help sort through what people bring back to us during this cleanup. As a litter sorter, this is a great way to learn not just about picking up litter, but also about sorting it into various categories for recycling and proper disposal education.

Safety First: We have a supply of buckets, work gloves, and pickers. But please bring your own gloves and equipment if you have it available! For safety reasons please wear closed toed shoes and always use a picker to sift through the sand to avoid sharp objects. If you come across any sharp or hazardous object, mark it and tell us, our team can handle the safe removal.
