Surfrider Rise Above Plastics Day – Wed, June 30th, 4pm to 6pm at Ocean Beach, Cardiff and Your Neck of the Woods -
Rise Above Plastics Day aims to raise awareness about the issues associated with single-use plastics. RAP Day is held the week prior to July 4th as a reminder for beachgoers to take less to the beach with them – especially avoiding styrofoam coolers, plastic water bottles and plastic bags.
Surfrider volunteers will be on busy street corners with awareness signs on Wed 6/30 from 4-6pm along with giving away high quality reusable grocery/beach bags at Patagonia in Cardiff and the Ocean Beach People’s Organic Food Market.
Get involved! Your community, workplace or local restaurant are ideal places to Rise Above Plastics.
