Ocean Beach will be cleaned and enhanced by more than 300 volunteers under the direction of I Love A Clean San Diego and funded by Councilmember Lorie Zapf from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. Saturday, March 11. Volunteers should meet at Veterans Plaza at Newport Avenue and Abbott Street.
The volunteers will go above and beyond picking up litter and debris. They will paint bike racks, stencil storm drains reminding residents and visitors that the storm drains go straight to the ocean. They will also remove graffiti, clean litter receptacles and be armed with the City’s “Get It Done” app to report anything the city needs to fix, like pot holes. Additionally, the Urban Corps will be using environmentally friendly equipment to power wash areas of the Ocean Beach boardwalk and business district.
