For 25 years, Adopt-a-Beach™ volunteers in Chicago have been removing and categorizing the trash that litters our beaches. This year the Alliance is excited to announce the launch of a pilot campaign to prevent litter from ending up on our beaches in the first place, the My Beach Is Your Beach campaign.

We are hosting our second My Beach Is Your Beach event on Tuesday June 28th, 2016 from 6:00 to 7:30 pm at Oak Street Beach (1000 N Lake Shore Dr.) and we want you to be a part of it! With your help, we will clean-up the beach to show everybody the right way to treat the lakefront AND we will demonstrate the amount of litter by putting a neon colored flag in place of every litter item we remove (flags will be removed after the event). Litter is no small problem and we intend to demonstrate that.
