 INTERNATIONAL COASTAL CLEAN-UP DAY
Saturday, September 19th

What a success this event was. South Maui Sustainability’s participation was great and we ran out of waiver forms after 25 people and there were several other groups cleaning up along the road by the Kealia Pond Boardwalk between North Kihei and Maalaea. There were over 50 people throughout the morning. Bags and bags of trash were stacked up by the roadside. Special thanks to all our volunteers and Katherine Jordan for helping organize the event and Community Work Day for providing the vests, bags and gloves. We’ll be doing more cleanups like this and most certainly participate in next year’s International event.
