Chapter Meeting
Join us for our Chapter Meeting on Thursday, June 5, from 5:30pm to 7pm at the Ocean Shores Public Library. Get the latest chapter updates, explore volunteer opportunities, and hear from Dr. Ian Miller of Washington Sea Grant about coastal erosion. This presentation is especially relevant given the erosion at Damon Point and Oyhut Bay.
Dr. Miller collaborates with coastal communities and public agencies in Washington State to enhance their ability to handle coastal hazards like tsunamis, erosion, and flooding due to climate change. He offers tools such as outreach, coordination, research, and helps secure funding and expertise needed by these communities.

Beach Cleanup
Ocean Shores City Wide Event
Dirtiest Beach Day of the Year
For many of us, the July Fourth holiday means soaking up sunshine at the beach and enjoying fireworks over the ocean. But once the festivities have finished, we are left with a less-than festive sight – trash covering our beloved beaches. So much trash is left behind that the fifth of July has been dubbed “the dirtiest beach day of the year.” From single-use plastic foodware and beverage bottles to firework casings and sparkler packaging, our coasts and beaches are littered with the remnants of the day before. The Surfrider Foundation knows things can be better, which is why we work to clean up the trash on the fifth of July and fight year round to prevent single-use plastics from polluting our beaches in the first place.
