Twelfth Annual Ipperwash Beach Cleanup is Saturday, September 7, 2024

It’s almost that time again! The 12th Annual Ipperwash Beach Cleanup is planned for Saturday, September 7, 2024 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.

This annual volunteer event has been occurring the Saturday after Labour Day to celebrate the beach memories made over the summer and to remind us that our leisure activities can sometimes leave an impact on the environment. 

After a busy summer (despite the consistent efforts of the local beach community), trash builds up on the beach and in the dunes. 

If you are interested in participating in this volunteer event, please meet at the Centre Ipperwash Boat Launch on September 7th at 9 a.m. 

St. Clair Region Conservation Authority (SCRCA) staff will be on hand with gloves, bags and hand sanitizer. 

If you have garbage pickers or pails, feel free to bring them. 

The organizers advise close-toed shoes, a hat, a reusable water bottle, and dressing for the weather. 

St. Clair Region Conservation will have some snacks to refuel you.

This event is hosted with support from the Ontario Ministry of the Environment, Conservation, and Parks. 

If you have questions or would like more information, please contact Jessica Van Zwol at jvanzwol@scrca.on.ca or Lisa McNeill at lmcneill@scrca.on.ca
