Over 30 sites throughout the Peninsula will be part of Coastal Cleanup Day on Saturday, Sept. 15, when tens of thousands of volunteers across the state team up to cleanup shorelines and waterways.

Cleanup events will be held at county beaches, creeks, waterways, parks and neighborhoods from 9 a.m. to noon. There will be two events in Redwood City, with volunteers meeting up at Public Works Services at 1400 Broadway, and also at Redwood High School, 1968 Old County Road.

Click on the San Mateo County Health System website for a map of all locations and for further details.

All are welcome, including children, as this is an educational opportunity to learn about litter impacts and prevention, organizers said.

San Mateo County coordinates the annual event in conjunction with the California Coastal Commission, Ocean Conservancy, and statewide and local partners.
