Description
This event is organized by the Friends of Padre.
Join us on February 24, 2024 for the 29th annual Billy Sandifer Big Shell Beach Cleanup. Meet at the Malaquite Visitor Center no later than 8:00 am. Park entrance fees will be waived. We will have giveaways from YETI and Friends of Padre, while supplies last. A free lunch will be provided at the conclusion of the event.
Volunteers with 4x4’s and utility trailers to transport volunteers to and from the work area are needed. Those with experience in beach driving will be the first to leave the staging area at the visitor center parking lot as early as 7:00 am for sections possibly going 40 miles down the beach. Volunteers are encouraged to recruit others with 4wd vehicles as we cannot guarantee all walk in volunteers will be be provided rides.
