Sierra State Parks Foundation Litter League Clean Up Days — Kings Beach
Hi fellow park lover,
Thank you for your interest in volunteering for the Litter League’s Clean Up Days! By joining the Litter League, you will help preserve the scenic beauty and unique ecosystems of some of our most popular beaches and parks — one bag of litter at a time! Beginning on June 18, 2021 from 9–11am, the Litter League will meet twice a month at two different litter hot spot sites. Please know that we are doing our best to ensure your safety with the best health and safety practices. Help us by doing your part: social distance and follow mask guidelines. Thank you!
KINGS BEACH STATE RECREATION AREA | June 18, July 2, August 6 & September 3: The Volunteer Coordinator and volunteers will always meet at the KBSRA parking lot.
