Beach Cleanup Coming to MacArthur Park

Posted by Dan Hauser on Friday, May 27th, 2016 at 1:54pm.

On Saturday, June 11th, MacArthur Park on Singer Island will be hosting a beach cleanup at the beach park. The cleanup will take place from 9am-11am and community service hours will be provided for school age participants.

Keeping our beaches clean is incredibly important, especially during sea turtle nesting season. Not only can trash and debris harm and possbily kill ocean wildlife and sea turtles, it can prevent the turtles from making their trip to the water.

MacArthur Park is situated between the Atlantic Ocean and the Lake Worth Lagoon on the northen end of Singer Island. The Park is 438 acres of natural environments, including seven species of plants and twenty-two species of animals designated as endangered or threatened. The park hosts a wide variety of nature walks, classes, and events.

For more information on the beach cleanup, call Park Specialist Art at 561-776­-7449, ext. 109. For a full list of park events, you can also visit their website at www.macarthurbeach.org.
