Join the PPPC BC Chapter & Sustainability Committee in partnership with Ocean Wise for an afternoon of community, connection, and giving back while helping clean and protect our local shoreline and park.

Spend time with fellow PPPC members enjoying the beautiful Fraser Foreshore Park scenery, fresh air, and hopefully some great June weather - all while making a meaningful impact together.

Along the way, we’ll help remove litter, collect important environmental data, enjoy a BBQ, prizes, and prove that small ripples really do make big waves.
