For the second month in a row, members of the Adventure Noosa Group joined forces with Plastic Free Noosa to host a clean-up event, this time at Sunshine Beach.
Twenty five participants attended the clean-up which resulted in 21 bags being filled with approximately 75 kilograms of waste being collected.
The Adventure Noosa Group (made up of operators from the Youth & Adventure sector) in conjunction with Plastic Free Noosa host regular clean-up events around Noosa Villages as they set sights on aligning themselves with Tourism Noosa green initiative, the Plastic Free Noosa Program.
Trader businesses from Sunshine Beach welcomed the clean-up participants to their village in true Sunshine style; Off the Hook Takeaway provided seafood snacks and tacos to participants and water (in recyclable aluminium bottles) and “I Love Sunshine” hats were provided by the team from Sunshine Beach Real Estate.
Major sponsors of the Community clean-ups, Heads of Noosa, were there on the day to join in on the clean-up and provided their new H20 Hops Water to the thirsty group after another successful clean-up event.
Kirk Dalgrin, owner of Off The Hook Takeaway and President of Sunshine Beach Traders Association said “It was great to see the adventure operators and members of the wider community in our village for the Plastic Free Noosa clean-up.“
“These clean-ups go a long way to strengthen community spirit and improve wellbeing through service to people and place,“ Kirk said.
Merrick and Elissa Davis from Noosa Learn to Surf said “It was awesome to help host our second Plastic Free Noosa Community clean-up.“
“Getting out there with locals and our adventure tourism colleagues again, whilst doing something great for our community, sure does feel good. Looking forward to the next one”.
