Come to the 4th Annual United Clean up with Friends of Ballona Wetlands at the intersection of the Braude bike path and the creek (near UCLA Aquatic Center in Marina del Rey). Enter from Fiji Way bike path. Validated parking with a purchase is available on Fiji Way in the Marina at 13723 Fiji Way, Marina del Rey 90292. Biking or carpooling is encouraged.
There will be 2 sites: BCR will be managing the north location and FBW will be managing the south location
To sign up for the event go to

This is a zero waste event! Bring 1-2 liters of reusable water bottles, wear closed-toe shoes & Bring a Hat! Wear sunscreen and long pants are recommended.
The BCR Team welcomes volunteers of all ages for this fun and worthwhile activity where the inland water and incoming tide meet—a special place of water, fish, birds, and plants—yet still too much concrete and mostly-plastic ocean-bound trash! It’s also a great way for students to earn community service credits!
As with all creek and coastal cleanups, kids under 18 need waiver forms signed by their parent or guardian, available either on-site or on website, http://ballonacreek.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/cleanupwaiversfor-minors2015.pdf
Adult volunteers sign waivers on-site. Children 14 years and under need to be accompanied by an adult guardian or parent.
Details: We recommend sunscreen, hats, and close-toed shoes (preferably water-resistant). Feel free to bring your own water in a reusable container and gloves. Water and gloves also will be available at the event, along with bags, grabbers, buckets, rakes, and educational displays.
