We will also be gathering data for the Ocean Conservancy. We will split into groups of 3, 1 person will have a bag, 1 person will have the data card and pencil and the last person will be picking up marine debris and letting the data collector know what he/she has. - Check-in will be at the shelter at Deering Point, located at 17350 Old Cutler Rd Miami, FL 33157 - Parking is available as you drive into the property. There is to be no parking in the drop off area. - trash bags, data cards, pencils, gloves, and garbage pick-up tongs will be provided - wear clothes that can get wet, muddy and dirty - wear closed toe shoes (crocs and flip flops are not allowed and will get lost in the mud) - Bring a change of clothes, a towel, extra shoes and a bag for dirty clothes and shoes, just in case it is really messy - bring a reusable water container (there are water fountains by the restrooms). Let’s reduce our plastic waste and refuse single-use disposable plastic water bottles, when possible - Snacks will be provided Volunteers must check in and sign waivers before any materials can be distributed **If you are under 18 and coming without a parent or guardian, you must have a parent/guardian sign the liability form & photo release**
