Join Galveston Bay Foundation and Dow Texas City on Thursday, May 26th to learn about marine debris in Galveston Bay and take part in a beach cleanup. We will meet at the "Texas City Dike Boat Ramp", which is the last large parking lot and boat ramp on the left-hand side of the dike.
All ages and abilities are welcome. This beach is wheelchair and limited-mobility accessible with parking available on the sand and no elevation changes.
Please bring sun protection, a full water bottle, and wear closed-toe shoes.
Galveston Bay Foundation will provide all cleanup materials and water refill stations. Dow will be providing snacks. We will have raffles as well!
