Help us keep the beach clean. 

We have been organizing volunteer beach cleanups faithfully for FOURTEEN YEARS, always on the First Saturday of the Month at 8:00 AM, weather permitting.

June 7 * July 5 * August 2 * September 6
October 4 * November 1 * December 6
January 3, 2009

Volunteer's Code of Safety (Click Here)

If weather is questionable:  CALL 561-748-8140 - if there is no cancellation message, THE CLEANUP IS A GO!

Here's what happens:

  • MEET 8:00 AM: Ocean Cay Park at southwest corner of A1A (at the beach) and Marcinski Road. Anita Lankler Pavilion.  Marcinski Road is North of Donald Ross Road and South of Indiantown Road in Jupiter.

  • Sign in at 8:00 AM, get your free prize ticket.  Join a team, grab small bags (bring some from home!)  We try to provide gloves and pick up sticks.  Large bags are provided by the Solid Waste Authority.

  • Each team cleans a section: along walk-ways, under crossovers, on beach, etc., but never in the dunes or sea grasses.  Some sections require a car ride.  Empty small bags into large SWA Adopt-a-Spot bags.  LEAVE BAGS BY THE TRASHCANS; not on the beach, not on the road...

  • WEAR: socks, sneakers, gloves & FJB T-shirt, if you'd like ($10 donation -  available at Cleanup). Protect arms & legs.  Follow the Safety Guidelines posted at the cleanups and here on the website.

  • FREE BREAKFAST:  Return by 9:30 AM for "the best breakfast on the beach", including Einstein Bagels, home baked breads, fruit, coffee, refreshments, fun, new & old friends, and great PRIZES from folks like Starbarks the Dog Bakery, Barefoot Yoga, Tabica Grill, and Nestle Purina.

  • 10:00 AM SHARP:  We are outta there!

If you're interested, JUST SHOW UP!  There is no need to register in advance.

Remember:  Community Service hours are awarded for volunteer work done for Friends of Jupiter Beach.

ALL are welcome!!
