Coastcare programs depend on volunteers.
Programs vary from year to year depending on Coastcare's priorities, available funding to provide coordination , tools, scientific services and the availability of volunteers.
Some activities are an occasional day that we make a special occasion, some are weekly, monthly or bi-monthly and others are an annual event.
