Blog — bumbleride cleanup

Thank you to all of the volunteers who helped clean up the park and bay around Maruta Gardner playground in Mission Beach!We picked up 10 lbs. of trash that would have been bound for the ocean including sandals, bottle caps, juice box plastic straw wrappers and plastic party confetti.Little cleaners went home with giveaway prizes thanks to Baby Tula, Wean Green, Shore Buddies and Clean Horizons. Stay tuned to our newsletter and Facebook for our next beach cleanup announcement this fall. This cleanup marked our 20th beach/park cleanup!  

We had a great time cleaning up Maruta Gardner Park in Mission Beach and leaving the playground, park and beach cleaner than we found them! The cleanup resulted in 8 lbs. of trash that would have ended up in the surrounding bay or ocean. Much of the trash was take-out food packaging and single-use plastics from snack wrappers and water bottle caps. Thank you to all the attendees for helping keep San Diego clean! Stay tuned for our next cleanup announcement.
