Each year, after a winter’s worth of inclement weather, heavy storm surges and millions of waves crash against the wild coast of Washington State, a group of volunteers gets together to walk the beaches, picking up tons of trash. Each April, the Washington CoastSavers, its partners and volunteers, have cleaned up what the storms of the past year have brought in.

The Grays Harbor 4-H Horse Council Horse Show and Clinic is free and open to the public.

What gives us a sense of place and belonging on the Harbor? Participate in a community mapping project to tell your story of what makes the Harbor…home. To participate, visit here to add to our online map or pick up a mapping kit at the Hoquiam Library beginning on Saturday, April 15.

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.
