2018 Beach Season is Almost Over!

We are nearing the culminations of our 33rd season of education and stewardship on the Oregon Coast!

2018 has been an eventful season for us, filled with outreach, art, citizen science, and community partnerships. At the end of last month, we had interacted with 85,000 visitors, ran nearly 70 education programs, rescued and transported 35 birds to the Wildlife Center, and attended over 100 events. This season over 160 volunteers selflessly donated their time to help us, and without them this season would not have been possible. The Beach Wheelchair Program has provided beach access to over 265 visitors so far this year.

Over the winter we will continue to participate in citizen science projects like the COASST Bird Survey, Sea Star Survey, and Marine Debris Survey.

Our official last day on the beach will be October 24th from 4pm-6pm.

Everyone who has participated in this year is invited to attend our End of Season Celebration on November 3rd, where we will hand out our Volunteer of the Year Award! We hope to see all of our staff and supporters there!!
