IOF Student Society does Shoreline Clean Up

On Saturday, September 17th, a group of IOF and zoology students joined Ocean Wise’s shoreline clean up event for International Coastal Cleanup Day! We met at Sunset Beach at 9am and enjoyed beautiful, sunny weather while picking up litter from the beach alongside many community members. This was part of a larger international effort that amounted to almost 500 kilograms of trash being collected from beaches across the coasts North America on September 17th. The event was a fun way to support efforts to keep our shorelines and oceans clean!
