Celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the Beach Sweeps!

April 24th, 2010; 9:00 am-12:30 pm
Statewide offering over 65 locations.

Clean Ocean Action’s Beach Sweeps is one of the longest running cleanups in the world. The cleanup first started in 1985 with 75 volunteers. Today, this bi-annual event includes beach, river, lake, and stream cleanups. Since 1985, over 70,000 volunteers have participated and removed over 3.5 million pieces of debris from New Jersey’s beaches and waterways. Volunteers of all ages are welcome. To participate, select a beach from the list of over 60 Beach Sweep Sites. Groups of 10 or more are asked to pre-register by completing the online form. When arriving at your chosen site, please register with the site’s “Beach Captain,” who will direct you during the cleanup.

For more information, please contact Tavia Danch (732) 872 0111 or Education@CleanOceanAction.org

About Ryan Struck

I am a self-taught Brooklyn based photographer. Earning a BA in History allowed me to investigate the things that have occurred in the world of which I knew nothing about. In that same spirit, photography allows me to be curious about the world and what surrounds us. I enjoy saving poignant moments through a visual medium, documenting lifestyle often fulfills this need quite nicely. I love what I do. When not at home shooting I can be found traveling in search of surf and inspiring natural lighting. My desire to capture images that help viewers imagine the instant the shutter clicked fuels my passion to combine beautiful light, people and places.
