Clean the Bay

The Boy Scout Clean the Bay Annual Event is a community service project dedicated to protecting and preserving local waterways and shorelines. Each year, Scouts come together to remove trash and debris from beaches, rivers, and surrounding areas, helping to reduce pollution and improve the health of the ecosystem. Participants work as teams to collect and properly dispose of waste, often documenting the types of debris found to support environmental awareness efforts.

Beyond cleanup, the event teaches Scouts the importance of environmental stewardship, responsibility, and teamwork. It provides an opportunity to give back to the community while making a visible, lasting impact on the environment. Through their efforts, Scouts help keep the bay cleaner, safer, and more enjoyable for wildlife and people alike.
