Volunteers are asked to join TPF from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. at Fort Caroline National Memorial, or from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. at Kathryn Abbey Hanna Park or Reddie Point Preserve to help clean up litter from the shoreline and the parks.

Helpers should wear closed-toe shoes and clothes they do not mind getting dirty. Please bring work gloves, if available, and a reusable water bottle. TPF will have additional gloves, trash bags and supplies and will also provide additional water to refill bottles as well as snacks.
Participants of all ages are welcome. Those under eighteen must have a waiver signed by a parent or guardian, and a parent, guardian or scout leader must accompany children under sixteen.
