• BEACH AND COASTAL CLEAN UP

Help your local beaches stay litter free this summer with a service project to clean up a beach area or coastal park.  Be sure to wear gloves!  You might collect some valuable recyclables your troop can cash in, too!  The first 60 responses from Troops will receive a free Coastal Clean Up patch!
