Join Saturday’s Clean Blue Lagoon event
The event organiser urged clean-up participants to visit the Clean Blue Lagoon Facebook page for any updates.
THE first #CBL (Clean Blue Lagoon) beach clean-up will be held on Saturday, January 15.
Eco-warriors are asked to attend the clean-up at the Beachwood Mangroves from 08:00 to 11:00.
“Black bags will be provided and all Covid-19 protocols will be followed. No mask, no entry,” said the event organiser, Denise McCreadie.

“Unless you want to walk the long way around, you will need to cross over a section of the river, so ensure that you wear the correct shoes,” she said.
Those attending must also carry gloves, a hat, water, sunscreen and sanitiser.
“If you can’t attend, but you still want to be an eco-warrior and save the ocean, then we can arrange for an unemployed person to attend on your behalf. All you need to do is Zap us some wage money and we will set it up for you,” said McCreadie.
Zapper details are on the Clean Blue Lagoon Facebook page.
