The Jupiter Inlet District has calculated and the modifications would allow 85%…

Since August, 2006 an estimated 57,124 pounds of garbage has been removed from our beaches by Friends of Jupiter Beach volunteers. Friends of Jupiter Beach promotes the conservation of our beaches, encourages community awareness, engages in school partnerships, conducts monthly beach cleanups, and provides dog bag boxes at each beach crossover. While most household debris is collected curbside, other areas-such as road right-of-ways and vacant lots tend to collect unsightly, unsanitary debris that will continue to accumulate if not cleaned.


The third Sunday of the month, at 4:00 PM, students from local and neighboring high schools gather at Ocean Cay Park for a beach cleanup. The students are becoming the next generation of environmental leaders…
