Frankfort high school honor students, helped clean up Elberta Beach in May, before the summer crush of beachgoers. They made two trips down the shoreline & roadway!


The International Coastal Cleanup is the world's largest volunteer effort for our ocean and waterways. People all over the world remove trash from the shores and document what they find. In Michigan, we record and send our data to the Alliance for the Great Lakes, who is the sponsor of the Adopt-a-Beach program.
