On Saturday, Nov. 5, members of Surfers Unite Rotarian Fellowship, La Jolla Golden Triangle Rotary Club, San Diego Coastal Rotary Club, Pacific Beach Rotaract, and friends in the community met at Tower 13 in Mission Beach for a fun clean-up event.

Wearing sports jerseys, the crew picked up plenty of trash and removed at least four dead birds from the shoreline. Included in the clean-up event were (pictured above) Rotarians Jacquie Reilly, Brett & Karla Morey, Stephen Tako, Michael Mena; Rotaractors Krista Davies and David Lockwood and friends in the community.

According to Founder of Surfers Unite and Past President of the La Jolla Golden Triangle Rotary Club, Brett Morey, “This is the fifth beach clean-up we have had at Mission Beach and the reality is we find trash in the sand, parking lot, and grass areas every time.”
