Beach Cleanups & Partnerships
The fireworks are gone, but the litter didn’t get the memo. On August 9th from 11am to 1pm at Theas Park in Tacoma, swap your beach day for a beach save at the “Ground & Sound” Beach Cleanup. We’ve teamed up with Harbor WildWatch to make cleaning up more fun than finding the last shell on the shore—think hands-on trash hunts, a Low Tide Discovery Walk, and adventure options from kayak to paddleboard for those ready to conquer hard-to-reach waters. Whether you’re grabbing gloves or an oar, your effort leaves a real mark. Jump in and help us keep our coastline spotless and our community proud. Secure your spot and skip the wait—click the link above to join the cleanup crew early!

2025 Open Positions
Every Surfrider Chapter is steered by a lively crew of volunteers who wear many hats on the Executive Committee—sometimes all at once! We've got five main gigs, plus a few extra roles for those who like to keep things interesting. Volunteering means you'll be rubbing elbows at monthly EC meetings, getting sandy at beach cleanups, and mingling at chapter shindigs throughout the year. To kick things off and get cozy with our team, dive into a beach cleanup, pop by a chapter meeting, and make sure your Surfrider membership is as current as your sunscreen. Check out the volunteer roles below. Current openings include Co-Chairs, Volunteer Co-Coordinator, Beach Cleanup Co-Coordinator, and Finance/Accounting.
