International Coastal Cleanup 2007

The International Coastal Cleanup (ICC) was held for second year in a row in Jaco on Saturday November 3rd.

The ICC is an event organized internationally by the Ocean Conservancy since 1986, with voluntary participants from all around of the world, helping clean-up garbage and solid waste from our beaches and rivers. (www.coastalcleanup.org)

The event in Jaco was organized by the Best Western Jaco Beach, Grupo Marta, Reef, and Coca-Cola Company (lead sponsor of the ICC around the world), with almost 100 participants cleaning the beach, including personnel from the four companies, kids, members of the community, and guests of the Hotel.

This activity is held every year starting on the month of September, and from today we will start preparing for the International Coastal Cleanup 2008
