ALA WAI CANAL CLEANUP TAKING VOLUNTEERS

Surfrider Foundation's O'ahu chapter will kick off Earth Week Sunday morning with a cleanup along Ala Wai Canal.

Student groups from the Shidler College of Business at the University of Hawai'i, the East-West Center and UH-West O'ahu will be among the volunteers. Lōkahi Canoe Club will offer canoes for those willing to paddle and collect trash. The Mai Tai Bar will provide prizes and refreshments after the two-hour cleanup, which will get under way at 10 at the park next to Waikīkī Public Library, 400 Kapahulu Ave. After the event, the Honolulu Zoo will waive admission fees for volunteers.

Participants should wear sunscreen and shoes and bring their own reusable water bottles. For additional information about volunteering, visit www.surfrider.org/oahu.
