Keeping the Golden Isles Beautiful

Our club is helping protect the waterways we love, one cleanup at a time.

Through Keep Golden Isles Beautiful’s Adopt a Highway program, our club has taken on Homer Wilson Way, a 1.2-mile stretch between the Brunswick River and the East River. After caring for Liberty Ship Park in previous years, members shifted their efforts to this popular spot for fishing, launching small boats, and enjoying the waterfront.

Small Crew, Big Impact

Groups of six to eight members have collected about eight bags of litter at each cleanup, removing bottles, cans, grocery bags, and snack wrappers from the shoreline and surrounding area. Every bag collected helps keep trash out of our creeks, rivers, and marshes.
