Ship Canal Cleanup tomorrow looking for volunteers

October 2nd, 2009 · No Comments

The Seattle Marine Business Coalition is having their annual Ship Canal Cleanup tomorrow, Saturday, October 3 from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The group, in partnership with the Puget Soundkeeper Alliance, the Army Corps of Engineers, Seattle Public Utilities and the Port of Seattle, will be cleaning up the Ship Canal from the Hiram Chittenden (Ballard) Locks to the Fremont Bridge as part of their commitment “To improve the working waterfront, to act on our commitment to a healthy marine environment, and to have fun.”

Anyone interested in volunteering is welcome to attend. Volunteers will be meeting at Fisherman’s Terminal, on the west side of Dock 9 and the West Wall adjacent to the orange cranes at 9 a.m., before climbing into a boat, kayak or tug and getting to work along the shoreline. Coffee and donuts will be provided for all volunteers, and if you register in advance, a halibut barbecue lunch courtesy of Jubilee Fisheries and the Seattle Marine Business Coalition.

If you are interested, please contact Lise Kenworthy at LiseKenworthy@comcast.net or (206) 270-8535 so that organizers can have an estimated head count. Download the sign-up sheet here.
