 After setting a record for the amount of trash picked up last year, this year saw that number significantly reduced. Volunteers collected just under 1,900 pounds. On July 5th of last year, over 6,000 pounds of trash was picked up from Zephyr Cove and Shoals alone. But another number nearly doubled, the volunteers who showed up to help clean up the beaches. This year, 774 volunteers arrived ready to help.
