The Coos Bay Surfrider Chapter sponsored its first beach cleanup this weekend at Lighthouse Beach at 10AM on Sunday, July 8th. 22 volunteers from the community removed two truckloads of debris from the beach, including a large dock that has been sitting on the beach for months. Volunteers used crowbars and hammers to dismantle the dock, taking care to leave the styrofoam core intact. The Coos Bay Chapter is actively seeking new members and volunteers to help keep our beaches and waters clean and safe for our community.
