COASST Marine Debris Training Session @ Ocean Shore Convention Center
May 7 @ 10:00 am – 4:00 pm
COASST Marine Debris Training Session @ Ocean Shore Convention Center | Ocean Shores | Washington | United States

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.

The People’s Summit @ Grays Harbor College, HUB Student Union 100 Bldg
May 20 @ 2:00 pm

Democracy Rising? is a Grays Harbor County Citizen Group sharing community concerns and wishing to offer a neutral “kitchen table”  opportunity to meet more of our neighbors – both urban and rural – in a  non-partisan way. Regardless of the national and international scene, we  sense an urgent need to build trust within our region – our county, towns,  countryside – the places where we live. We have serious long term  challenges.

We will not be discussing National Politics. THINK LOCAL ONLY.
