While Earth Day is Monday, April 22, the American Littoral Society will mark the occasion with a week of events that promise a range of opportunities for individuals to get involved and make a positive difference for the planet and the coast. Our Earth Day festivities will include a beach cleanup in New York, sprucing up our Slade Dale living shoreline project, and dune grass planting along the Delaware Bay. Some details remain to be worked out on certain events, so please keep an eye on the Littoral Society's social media and website for updates as we approach them. Mark your calendars for the following events and join us for a week dedicated to honoring Mother Earth and promoting environmental awareness. More events will be added as soon as we have all necessary details. Slade Dale Spruce Up and Point Pleasant Earth Day Celebration
On Saturday, April 20 from Noon - 4 p.m., Littoral Society staff will join the Point Pleasant Borough Environmental Commission for an Earth Day Celebration at Riverfront Park, 2300 River Road, Point Pleasant, NJ. We will be talking to visitors about our work in the community, the state and beyond, while also recruiting volunteers for our Slade Dale Spruce Up the following day. The Earth Day Celebration is free and will feature food, rides, a petting zoo, and more. Find more information on Facebook. The next day, Sunday, April 21, 10 am - 1 pm, Littoral Society staff and volunteers will add recycled Christmas trees to the branchbox breakwaters at Slade Dale Sanctuary in Point Pleasant, NJ. Please RSVP so we know how many to expect. Jersey Shore Surfrider Eco Fest The same day (Saturday, April 20) we're recruiting volunteers in Point Pleasant, we will be joining the Jersey Shore Chapter of the Surfrider Foundation in Long Branch, NJ for an Eco Fest. The event will run from 1 - 5 p.m. at The WhiteChapel Projects. The event will feature Live music, vendors, guest speakers, kids crafts and more. We look forward to seeing you there! Find more info on Facebook. Dune Grass Planting Along Delaware Bay In preparation for horseshoe crab spawning season, please join us for a Volunteer Dune Grass Planting event at Fortescue Beach on Wednesday, April 24 at 10 a.m. Fortescue Beach, located in Downe Township, Cumberland County, NJ, is home to one of the American Littoral Society’s Delaware Bay restoration projects. Planting dune grass helps to keep sand on the beach and create ideal habitat for horseshoe crabs and migratory shorebirds. Find more information and RSVP on our website. This Earth Day week, the American Littoral Society invites you to be part of a series of events that celebrate, educate, and contribute to the preservation of our coastal environments. Whether you're volunteering, enjoying a community celebration, or participating in eco-friendly activities, your involvement makes a positive impact. Join us in honoring Mother Earth and taking steps towards a more sustainable future. Together, let's make every day Earth Day!
