Form Your Own Group!

Scouts, PTA's, Campfire Girls, soccer teams... You can all take a section of beach or creek to clean up. There are volunteer staging areas where you can become part of a team of beach combers. A San Francisco meeting place is located at India Basin Shoreline Park, Hunter's Point, San Francisco. Teams are also meeting at Golden Gate Park. Check Ocean Conservancy's site for more information!
