DEJA has, for many years, maintained an Adopt-A-Beach at Navy Crossing in Cape Henlopen State Park. We'll be doing a cleanup on August 25th on that beach as part of the of cornhole tournament. In addition to that every year DNREC does a massive coastal cleanup effort which picks up literal tons of trash off the beaches. We're looking for as many volunteers as possible assist with the cleanup that day. Usually we walk the beach for a couple hours in the morning and then we go to Navy Crossing or whatever beach and hang out for the day.
Waiting on confirmation from DNREC on which beach but all 3 of our choices were in Henlopen. Meet at 9AM at the designated location. I'll actually be out of town that weekend, if someone could be the "captain" it would be appreciated. That just means checking in with the person in charge of the site and making sure they get the forms at the end. Nothing hard.

edit: 8/10 location has been confirmed at Gordon's Pond. Enter through the Rehoboth side or through main Henlopen access if you have a surf tag and want to drive across the sand. I'd like to see half a dozen or so people out of this please. We also need a "site captain" which just means you are the one who talks to DNREC there and hands in the forms, nothing hard.
