Spring Beach & River Sweep
April 30, 2022 @ 10:30 am - 2:30 pm
The Daufuskie Island Conservancy and the Haig Point Environmental Committee will
collaborate for the annual Beach Sweep/River Sweep on Daufuskie on April 30, 2022 at
10:30 a.m. and volunteers are asked to gather at one of two locations on the Island:
Beach Road Gazebo at Bloody Point
Calibogue Beach Club Pool at Haig Point
As volunteers arrive, we will distribute forms for areas to clean up along the Calibogue
and the Atlantic Beaches/Marshes from Haig Point to Bloody Point. Refreshments will
be provided. Volunteers are advised to wear hard sole shoes & gloves, bring water
bottles and wear sunscreen, hat, or sun visor.
Only approved vehicles are permitted on the beach
Aquatic debris is a danger to our wildlife, our safety, and our economy. Fish, birds,
turtles, and other animals often mistake trash for food. As a result, animals get entangled
in or ingest litter with deadly results. Daufuskie Island is so fortunate to have such a
large variety of aquatic life in our waters.
