9/17/2006 - International Coastal Cleanup
This 17th of September was the International Coastal Cleanup, as everybody should know!
Anyway, it was a great event here in Playas del Coco, as all dive centers and other organisations worked together to make this a realy big intervention.
Over 100 students, but also many locals and tourists signed up - attracted by the many prices to win or by personal awareness - and participated at the beach cleanup, which was also used to introduce the new recycling system in Playas del Coco!
We took the occasion to convince a few families of our doughters school to participate with us and to inform the children about the importance of doing this, as it is hard to teach adults with bad habits...!
The afternoon was reserved for a trip with our staff, some friends and volontiers to increase the size of this event by going to some of the popular beaches, only accessible by boat! It was definately worth it: even if some places have garbage bags, it would take days to clean all the boat-, pick-nic- and other garbage...
THANKS EVERYBODY FOR HELPING TO MAKE THIS DAY A BIG SUCCESS!!!!!
Especially to the Centro Infantil Los Delphines, Playas del Coco.
