Let's show our love for the Estero Bluffs!
First of all, many thanks to all of you who walk and clean the Estero Bluffs throughout the year.
The Cayucos Land Conservancy once again invites you to come out and be part of an international clean up day. All over the world volunteers will be cleaning creekbeds and coastlines.
Meet at Killer's surf spot (Fig Tree Parking Area) by 9am, Saturday September 21 in order to choose or be assigned an area to clear of trash. Then we'll spread out over the four mile stretch from North Ocean Avenue to Villa Creek.
BYOB (Bring Your Own Bucket and Bags) and we'll enter you in a drawing. "Grabbers" are also highly recommended. We'll have some supplies on hand, including hand sanitizer and prizes!
Return by 11:30 to weigh and document what's been collected and identify any areas to be checked by State Parks or other agency.
Bring water and gloves and probably a hat, too. Be sure to wear sunscreen and good walking shoes.
(You can be part of a worldwide effort to reduce trash by downloading this Trash-Free-Seas app from the Ocean Conservancy for documenting what you pick up as you go.)
Creeks to Coast Cleanup: For many years the Cayucos Land Conservancy has coordinated with ECOSLO for local efforts on this worldwide cleanup.
In the meantime, please plan to join us at Estero Bluffs State Park on Saturday, September 21.
In 2023, at the Estero Bluffs State Park site, our CLC team gathered and hauled away almost 200 lbs. of trash in 3 hours at Estero Bluffs alone - and had fun doing it. Our dedicated crew picked up automobile parts, used oil, fishing traps, carpet, fiberglass, over one-thousand cigarette butts, and all kinds of plastic bits that would have washed into the ocean and been eaten by wildlife.
Many thanks to the SLO office of SWCA Environmental Consultants for staffing the 2023 Cleanup! This group, under the guidance of Bill Henry, is CLC's Corporate Sponsor and conducts the annual environmental monitoring of the Cayucos hillside parcels, aka 'paper lots.'
