DAY OF SCHEDULE
BEACH CLEANUP
10 AM – 12 PM @ Toes Beach (Tower TBA)
Help remove hundreds of pounds of harmful marine debris with volunteers from all over Los Angeles and Heal the Bay.
All volunteers must receive their Beach Talk before checking in. After the talk, they’ll check in and gather supplies, then begin their cleanup.
Rolling check-in will continue until 11:00 AM. Pre-registered volunteers may consider arriving after 10:15 AM to avoid the biggest crowds.
Sold out? If general admission sells out, you can still show up. Walk-ups should arrive by 10:45 AM to allow time for registration. However, you will be responsible for bringing your own cleanup supplies, and you must complete the check-in process by 11 AM.
EXPO HUB
10:00 AM – 12 PM @ Toes Beach | Expo Hub
Explore exhibits, promotions, information on how to get more involved, and interactive activations relevant to the LA region and the entire West Coast. This month’s Expo Hub will be dedicated to “Fixing the Leak!” and honoring the contributions women have made to environmental and climate science.
ED TALK
11:20 AM – 12 PM @ Toes Beach | Ed Talk Tent
Connect with fellow volunteers, learn more about Heal the Bay, engage in community discussion, hear talks from marine scientists, environmental policy specialists, ClimateTech organizations, and more. Join us here at 11:45 am for the raffle.
