Gandy Beach Cleanup

It’s that time of year again! Keep Pinellas Beautiful (KPB) is excited to announce the 2024 Great American Cleanup (GAC) presented by Phade taking place from March 1st – June 30th. This Keep America Beautiful signature event engages over 5,000 volunteers, removing litter and beautifying locations throughout Pinellas County. The success of our mission relies on the engagement of residents to take responsibility within their own neighborhoods. Our partners and volunteers are individuals, families, students, civic organizations, businesses, and government entities who all want to improve the environmental health of the community in which we all live, work and play.

In partnership with 5.11 Tactical, Keep Pinellas Beautiful is hosting a cleanup at South Gandy Beach on June 29th! Volunteers will assist with cleaning the shoreline and mangroves. We can't wait to see you there!
