CANCELLED - City of Jacksonville, Keep Jacksonville Beautiful to Hold Beach Cleanup for Endangered Right Whales

November 03, 2021
Due to inclement weather, the Right Whale Cleanup on Saturday has been cancelled. Thank you.

The City of Jacksonville and Keep Jacksonville Beautiful will host the 13th annual Right Whale Beach Cleanup Saturday, Nov. 6 from 8 to 10 a.m.
 
Volunteer check-in will be at the Sea Walk Pavilion, 75 1st Street North., Jacksonville Beach – 32250. Volunteers must be at least 18 years old or accompanied by an adult. Community service certificates will be available for participants.
 
The cleanup celebrates the North Atlantic right whales’ yearly return to their only known calving area in the southeastern United States.
