FAU & Florida Beaches

Finally, finally we were at the beach. We survived our 12 hour trek down to the West Palm area the night before and now it’s Saturday morning and time to HIT THE BEACH! Sandwiches made, all the beach necessities in hand, and kids in tow we head down to the sandy shore. AAAAHHH…we made it. Just as we got set up, we noticed a group dressed in civilian clothing (i.e. no bathing suits). They were wearing gloves and carrying bags. What’s this…a beach clean up? I LOVE it!

The students from Mission Green, an organization on the campus of Florida Atlantic University (FAU), were doing their part to keep Florida beaches clean and green. Now if you can remember back to your college days…I’ll wait …you can remember the precious commodity of a Saturday morning. Yes, these students were hittin’ the beaches by 9am to clean up trash left by the true beach bum.
