Brunswick County beaches and shorelines across the

That's when thousands ol volunteers are expected to
participate in Big Sweep '91, a statewide cleanup ol
250 sites including nine in the county
Volunteers arc needed to pick up litter at Sunset
Beach. Ocean Isle Beach <K\k Island. Southpoit and
Bald Head Island.
The Holden Beach Bcautification Committee is plan
ning a private cleanup, and the Shallotte River Power
Squadron will take care ol Bird Island.
Participants will be recording what they collect on
standard daui cards, which will be compiled into a na
tional database in Washington. D.C.
Coordinators use the data to target groups that litter
shorelines and need to be educated about the harmful
cffects ol littering.
Organizers of North Carolina's fifth annual cleanup
expect more than 20, (MX) volunteers to help pick up litter
at mors, lakes, beaches and streams tins Saturday, ac
cording to a sponsoring agency. UNC Sea Grant.
Cix>rdinators offer the follow ing tips for volunteers:
?Hrnig gloxes to minimize contact w ith filthy debris.

serve sale boating practices and wear a lile jacket.
? Do not wade into the water to pick up debris unless
you can swim and you know the depth ol the water.
