Grab your gloves and join the Aquarium of Niagara for a free beach cleanup along the Lake Ontario shoreline. By participating in this family-friendly event, you’ll be part of a global movement to remove waste from our waterways. Over the years, volunteers have helped us remove more than 10,000 pounds of litter from our local shorelines, protecting aquatic habitats from the negative impact of trash on important ecosystems. This cleanup is part of the International Coastal Cleanup sponsored by the Ocean Conservancy and organized for New York state by the Northeast Chapter of the American Littoral Society.
