Friends of Schinias Beach Clean-up
 On Sunday, November 15th, a group of volunteers is organising our Third Clean-up
of Schinias Beach and Forest. Our objective is to collect and bag as much
garbage as possible, between the beach and the asphalt road. We will place the
collected garbage in the recycling bins placed near the beach.
This last
summer, record numbers of people visited Schinias. The forest and beach are
littered with garbage, mostly plastic, metal and glass packaging. We will focus
on cleaning as much of the forest region as possible.
The amount of
ground we will cover will depend on the number of volunteers to turn out on
November 15th. Please register by emailing Philip Ammerman
at pga@navigator-consulting.com, so we can plan the work teams and meeting
points.
Meeting Place
Meet near the "Glaros" Taverna
on the beach. Take Leoforos Schinias past the Olympic Rowing Centre. After you
pass a small group of houses and tavernas, take the first right-hand turn (dirt
road). This leads you to the Glaros Taverna on the beach: once you arrive at the
taverna, turn right and continue for about 100 m parallel to the beach, where
you will see our registration desk. Please arrive at 10:00 so we can divide into
groups and clean the area.
What to Bring
• Drinking
water or other beverages for your personal consumption
• Comfortable work
clothes, including work gloves
Everyone is invited to a group picnic
lunch at 13:00: please join us and bring a salad, sandwiches, tiropitakia,
keftedakia, dolmathes, drinks/ beverages or other food to contribute to the
common lunch.
