Looking for a way to give back this Summer Solstice? Join us for a cleanup at Nasookin Bay!

This shoreline located 4km north of Nelson (next to the Nasookin Steamboat House), is littered with polystyrene foam that has broken down from nearby docks containing unencapsulated foam. This has created a persistent mess on the beach and can be detrimental to waterfowl and fish if consumed.

Join us and the community of Nasookin Heights to clean up their local dock, beach, and potentially a stretch of crown land across from Blaylock’s mansion.

We will provide buckets and other cleanup equipment needed, but we recommend bringing the following:

• Shovel or Hand Trowel (optional)
• Bucket (there will be extra buckets)
• Gardening/work gloves (there will be extras provided)
• Comfortable and weather appropriate clothing
• Trash pickers if you have a sore back (there will be extras provided)
• Gumboots for highwater areas
• Food and water
