September, 2011 – Keep PBC Beautiful

0
When we trash the ocean, we trash our own well-being.
Keep Palm Beach County Beautiful Announces Locations for the
International Coastal Cleanup 2011
Keep Palm Beach County Beautiful, Inc.(KPBCB) welcomes help from volunteers for the International Coastal Cleanup scheduled for Saturday, September 17 with additional dates in September, October, and November in Palm Beach County.  The cleanup is sponsored by The Ocean Conservancy worldwide and is coordinated locally by KPBCB.
As part of this effort across the globe, individuals take part in the International Coastal Cleanup (ICC) to remove trash and debris from the world’s beaches and waterways, identify the sources of that debris, and change the behaviors that allow it to reach the ocean in the first place.
During this signature event each September, hundreds of thousands of volunteers from countries all over the world spend a day picking up everything from cigarette butts and food wrappers to lost fishing nets and major appliances. Because trash travels to the ocean by way of storm drains and waterways, they don’t just work along ocean beaches; these dedicated volunteers navigate through mud and sand along lakes, canals, and rivers, often working far inland on roadways and neighborhood streets.
Many walk, while others set out on boats. Thousands more don scuba gear to seek trash below the water’s surface. People of all ages, from any walk of life, can participate. Friends, families, neighbors, club members,  school classes—all kinds of people turn out on one day to work together in spirit across many time zones.
Working shoulder-to-shoulder, the volunteers in the Cleanup’s global network not only pick up trash, they record every item they find on standardized data cards. KPBCB compiles the data locally and the Ocean Conservancy compiles and analyzes the data worldwide each year, and publishes the world’s only item-by-item, location-by-location snapshot of marine debris in an annual report. By understanding what is out there, we can work together on solutions. 
Last year, during the 25th anniversary of the Cleanup, in Palm Beach County alone, over 4,000 volunteers picked up over 29,000 lbs of trash from Palm Beach County beaches, lakes, and participating neighborhoods. From the information provided by volunteers, the source of most of the trash and debris comes from shoreline and recreational activities (52.54%) and smoking-related activities (37.29%).
This year in Palm Beach County, local volunteers will gather at multiple locations on September 17 with additional dates in September, October, and November. Most cleanup events begin at 8:00 a.m. with some alternative times. For a list of sites, dates, and times, please visit www.keepPBCbeautiful.org  or call (561) 686-6646.   Community Service Hours will be given. Volunteers should pre-register by contacting the volunteer coordinators listed for each site. Trash bags and other supplies will be provided and volunteers are encouraged to wear hats, sunscreen, sturdy shoes and bring water. Free ICC t-shirts will be given to volunteers while supplies last.

Last year, Coca-Cola activated a global employee engagement campaign around the Cleanup called “Pick it Up, Clean it Up, Sea Change!” Nearly 26,000 Coca-Cola system associates, their friends and families in 175 locations across 40 countries participated in the ICC, contributing more than 200,000 hours of volunteer time. As part of its commitment to address global climate change, Bank of America has supported the ICC for the past several years, with thousands of employees participating in Cleanup events in the United States and around the world. Other national sponsors include National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Altria Group, Inc., The Walt Disney Company, Landshark Lager, Brunswick Public Foundation, and The Dow Chemical Company.

GOLF TOURNAMENT PLANNED IN SUPPORT OF PROJECT GRADUATION 2012

a safe, drug-free and alcohol-free graduation night party that ensures a fun

and safe time for all graduating seniors from Wellington High School

 

 

Wellington, FL — The 2012 PROJECT GRADUTION planning committee met recently at Binks Forest Golf Course to being making plans for a fundraising golf tournament, which is scheduled for December 4 at the course. 

 

Serving on the PROJECT GRADUATION planning committee are:

Co-chairs: Susanne Bennett and Jeannette Parssi

Committee members:  Donna Baxter, Milagros Rivera, Cindy Lutz, Christine Webb.

Additional volunteers are being sought to serve on several sub-committees.

 

The group’s goal is to plan and organize a safe, drug-free and alcohol-free graduation night party that ensures a fun and safe time for all graduating seniors from Wellington High School.  The concept of PROJECT GRADUATION was created years ago to meet that objective. 

 

The Project Graduation party starts at around 10pm on graduation night and the fun continues until almost 5 am.  “Our graduates will be entertained all night by a DJ, huge inflatable games and rides, a hypnotist, casino games and much, much more,” said co-chair Susanne Bennett.  Food and drinks are served throughout the night.

 

“To help cover the cost of the event,” added co-chair Jeannette Parssi, “we are planning a golf tournament on December 4 at Binks Forest Golf Club, and are actively recruiting golfers and sponsors.”  The cost to participate in the tournament is $100 per gofer, “but if any non-golfers want to help, they can purchase a ‘dinner-only’ ticket for just $25,” said Parssi.  To learn more, visit the group’s FACEBOOK page at “.”

 

To contact the group by phone, dial (561) 635-2037 for Jeannette Parssi or (561) 670-0840  for Susanne Bennett.
