Ocean Conservancy's International Coastal Cleanup

Thank you for joining us for this year's cleanup! 

Thank you for joining Ocean Conservancy and hundreds of thousands of volunteers from around the world for the 2008 International Coastal Cleanup. How did it go?  Please share your cleanup stories with us and other volunteers just like you.     Did you bring your camera to the International Coastal Cleanup? Then share your favorite pictures with your fellow volunteers by uploading them to the Coastal Cleanup group on Flickr!   The votes have been counted in the Weirdest Find Contest.  "Little Buddy", the guinea pig found during a beach cleanup, has won top prize, and voters' hearts.

Help us make next year's event even more successful and send us some feedback on our volunteer survey!
