SOS Sea Creatures Win Best in Parade

Submitted by emily on Tue, 07/29/2008 - 11:08.
Save Our Shores participated in the July 4th Aptos Parade to help prevent marine pollution on our beaches due to the July 4th celebrations.
  • Over 1500 bags were handed out on July 4th during the parade and down on the more popular Santa Cruz beaches.
  • Our pollution prevention efforts paid off, we saw a significant decrease in the amount of debris left behind on the beaches this year,
  • Save Our Shores employees and volunteers won Best in Parade for our sea creature costumes and yellow submarine float!
SOS volunteers and staff strutted down the parade route decked out in jellyfish and sea anenome costumes followed by a yellow submarine float, with seaweed stocks and waiving volunteers handing out bags to the crowd. Parade onlookers were happy to accept trash bags while they cheered us on.

Thanks to our supporters and the City of Aptos for voting Save Our Shores as Best in Parade! For more information on our July 4th Pollution Prevention efforts and our cleanups on July 5th, please visit the July 4th article.
