With Earth Day approaching, the Onset Bay Center is encouraging people to join them for an afternoon of helping the planet by cleaning up Onset Beach.

The event will be held Thursday, April 24 and anyone interested in attending can help the center's staff cleanup the trash around the beach.

Center staff will meet participants at the center's flagpole at 5 p.m. on Thursday where they will hand out bags and gloves.

The cleanup will end at 6:15 p.m. and volunteers can enjoy pizza provided by Safe Harbor Onset Bay from 6:15 to 7 p.m.

All equipment is provided but attendees are welcome to bring their own gloves, trash bags and pickers.
