Thank You for Helping at the Beach Cleanup!!!

9/21/2017

​We at Blue Horizons Wellness and at Schneider Risk Management want to thank you all again for sharing your Saturday morning with us and devoting a portion of your time to keeping our neighborhood park and beach clean.  A special thanks to Girl Scout Troop 4720 for showing up in force, and to the brave parents and scout leaders who brought them! 
 
The trash count has been tallied and here are the trashy facts:

  • In total, the group picked up over 1120 pieces of trash.
 
  • The weight of the trash was 21.3 pounds.  That may not sound like allot, but it is reflective of the type of trash found, i.e., lots of foam cigarette butts, plastic and foam pieces, paper, etc.  Not too much of the heavier trash items like glass bottles. 
 
  • Cigarette butts accounted for about 1/3 of the total trash pieces collected which reflects how common smoking still is in the area, and how smokers do not perceive that throwing butts on the ground is littering.
 
  • Plastic pieces also accounted for about 1/3 of the total trash pieces collected which reflects how pervasive plastic is in our society.  
 
  • The most unusual things found were a shoe and a golf ball.  
 
  • We also picked up the aftermath of a birthday party (paper streamers, birthday candles and sticker backs).
   
We hope you all enjoyed the event, and we hope to see you again in the spring when we do this again! 
 
Many Thanks!
 
Bill & Vicki Schneider

I'm really glad that the community is very active in helping out clean the beach. This type of news makes me happy and uplifts my mood. I'm glad that I'm a part of this very interactive community. I'll be sure to attend the next community cleanup. I wasn't able to attend the last time because of my work. I'll be inviting my friends to join in as well.
