Posted On: February 23, 2026

Volusia County will host its next community beach cleanup from 8 to 10 a.m. Saturday, March 7, at Winterhaven Park in Ponce Inlet, continuing its ongoing efforts to protect local shorelines and encourage environmental stewardship. The cleanup will bring together residents, visitors, and civic groups for a hands-on opportunity to care for local beaches while supporting a cleaner, healthier coastal environment.

The event is part of the County’s Keep Volusia Beautiful initiative, which organizes multiple cleanups throughout the year. Led by Volusia County’s Solid Waste Division, the March cleanup will focus on collecting litter and helping preserve the natural appearance of the beach and surrounding areas.

Winterhaven Park is located at 4589 S. Atlantic Ave., approximately 3.5 miles south of Dunlawton Boulevard. Trash bags and gloves will be provided. Volunteers are encouraged to wear appropriate outdoor work clothing and bring water and sunscreen. RSVPs are encouraged to ensure adequate supplies are available.
