September 25, 2010 will mark the 25th Annual International Coastal Cleanup activity spearheaded by Ocean Conservancy (click on the link to find out more about this organization).
The Lighthouse Marina Resort has invited our school to take part in this global campaign to clean up our beaches and contribute to the rehabilitation of our beloved planet.
"Together with Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority and its partners, we can help represent Subic Bay as well as the Philippines in this very special event and show that we can start a sea of change and make a positive impact on the world around us." - Argee Gomez, Resident Manager of Lighthouse Marina ResortThe goal is to get at least 1000 participants to join. This will be held down at the Waterfront, stretching all the way to Moonbay Marina. Event starts at 6:00am on Saturday, September 25.
I am looking for a handful of seniors (maximum of 5) who would like to take this on as a service activity. What will you need to do?
- Promote the event and encourage the your peers and community members to participate.
- Organize the group of volunteers and get them ready for the event on Sept 25.
- Coordinate with the volunteers and the school for possible transportation needs.
- Coordinate with Mr. Argee Gomez of The Lighthouse for further instructions and details (promotional materials, maybe invite a guest speaker for Chapel) about the event.
- Participate in the the actual cleanup day and oversee your volunteers.
If you are interested in taking the lead on this, please let me know right away by commenting on this post. We'll need to sit down and discuss certain details to get you started with your work. If you'd rather just participate, then read up on the goals of this activity using the links on this post and write up your proposal.
There will be Brent teachers participating as well, but this is certainly a wonderful opportunity for you to address several of the learning outcomes that you have been missing out on.

ReplyDeleteThat's great, Jana. You'll need help with this so if you'd like to take the initiative, round up 4 more people who are interested and are willing to work on this. Have them signify their intention as well on this post by commenting just like you did. Also, you can start on the proposal for this activity so we can work on it already. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteGreat work Mr TEE!
ReplyDeleteSadly, I think that day will be doing Extended Essay lockdown.
Best of Luck and Keep on Keeping ON!
