Locals can participate in Oct. 22 underwater conservation effort

On Saturday, October 22, volunteer scuba divers are gathering to canvas the near shore waters of the Gulf in an effort to remove garbage and unnatural debris. The cleanup site spans approximately 2.5 miles and runs from the 1200 block of West Beach to the 500 block of East Beach (Fire Department to Gulf State Park). Divers may pre-register. Minors under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian who is open water scuba certified. For more info, contact Paul Maliska at 251-968-3795.
