Join SCAD SERVE and Tybee Clean Beach volunteers in reclaiming and restoring the beach!
The bus will depart from The MONTGOMERY Hall Bus Stop at 8:45 am so students should arrive at the bus stop by 8:30 am at the latest.
On Saturday, September 17, SCAD SERVE volunteers will wrap up the weekend by the seaside collecting litter and debris from the shores of Tybee Island. Volunteers will work independently to collect litter and debris from along the coast line to beautify and renew this ecosystem and protect the plants and wildlife. Under no circumstances will volunteers need to or be required to go in the water. Tybee Clean Beach will provide clean litter collectors and any materials necessary to complete the task. The group will focus on refreshing the area near the pier.
Volunteers will help pick up and sort trash from 10 am until 12:30 pm. The bus will return volunteers to the MONTGOMERY Hall Bus Stop by 1:30 pm. All participants riding the bus to the beach must return on the bus at departure.
Volunteers transporting themselves to the beach will meet at 1509 Strand Ave. at 9:30 am to meet the group. Volunteers can depart from the event on their own and submit volunteer hours through galaxy digital.
Stephen Worsham will be the SCAD representative at this event.
All volunteers must wear appropriate clothing to participate. This includes shoes, t-shirts and pants or shorts that allow for bending, moving, lifting, and a strong potential for getting dirty. Do not wear bathing suits to participate in this activity. If you have a SCAD shirt or a SCAD SERVE t-shirt, this helps our group keep a unified look.
We will inform volunteers in advance of the event if the weather cancels this opportunity. Please stay up to date with all SCAD communications for event status updates.
For your protection, consider sun screen, bug spray, a hat for sun protection, and a reusable water bottle to refresh yourself away from the group.
All volunteers must register in advance of the event and be in good health
