If you can’t make it…

Please notify us 2 days prior if you can’t fill your reserved spot as lunch is ordered and other volunteers would love to come in your place.
You can always reserve another time as there is plenty of trash and we understand that things happen.

Please keep in mind…

Note about children attending:
If any children will be attending please let us know so we can make appropriate preparations.
Children under 8 require an adult chaperone or parent (max 2 children per adult)

We’re sorry but no pets allowed.

The amount of volunteers we can accommodate on the boat is 8 per trip and calendars fill up fast!

What You Need To Know and Do

Most of what we do is dirty.  Where we do it is often hot and sometimes secluded. 
Proper equipment and preparation is key to your enjoyment and safety. 

Please look at the following list and make sure you are ready for your day Volunteering with the team:

• Bring a Reusable water bottle.  We can fill you up!
• Water shoes: We wade into areas that are filled with muck.  Make sure your shoes are secure and won’t be pulled off in deeper bottoms.
• Long sleeved shirts and pants.  We climb into the mangroves, and they will take a bite out of you not to mention being out in the sun!
• Work gloves if you have a favorite pair but we have them for you.
• Reef-safe sunscreen.
• Sunglasses.  Polarized is preferred.
• Hat, bandanna, or other head covering to protect from the sun.
• Optional: Change of clothes, towel, etc.

Our days usually run from morning to mid afternoon, under the Florida sun.  Please take breaks often, and drink lots of water. 
Don’t wait until you are thirsty, that’s too late.

Safety is our number one goal.  Always work in pairs or in groups!
