COASST Marine Debris participants survey local beaches and collect data on the characteristics and location of debris – data that will ultimately be used to map the source and transport pathways of debris, as well as the potential harm to people, wildlife, and local coastal ecosystems. Volunteers need NO prior experience, just a commitment to survey a specific beach (about ¾ mile) each month.
If you are interested in participating, join COASST staff for the training session. There is no charge to attend the training, but plan to provide a $20 refundable deposit if you would like to take home a COASST volunteer kit. Training activities take place indoors. Beach surveys are best conducted in groups of 2 or more – please come with a survey partner in mind or plan to join a team during training.
Explore your creativity and exercise your brain! Make new friends and have fun building with LEGO® bricks at the library. Make your own creations or get inspiration from the library’s collection of LEGO® books.

Engage in conversation and problem-solving around contemporary issues relating to housing and homelessness in the Harbor region. Attendees will hear from a panel, engage in small group discussion, and leave with personal action steps they can take to strengthen their community.
