He will be working very closely with our Social Media and Website Liaison, Beth Robinson. So if you have a photo, event information, a press release, etc. you would like our community to be aware of, please send the information to Amos at amostroutpaine@gmail.com.

Suggestions from the Club on how to keep the Great Pacific Garbage Patch from growing:

Use reusable shopping bags
Just say ‘No’ to straws and unnecessary plastic items
Use products that have built in degradability
