The East Gloucester “Plastic Pick it Up” club is kicking off the summer with neighborhood lemonade stands. All the proceeds go towards initiatives to help rid Gloucester of plastic pollution. Last year they donated the amazing sum of $540.00 to the Cape Ann Maritime Partnership (CAMP) to help purchase a Seabin and Marine Skimmer, marine technologies designed to clean up oil and plastic garbage.

When you see one of their pop up lemonade stands, stop for a delicious glass of homemade lemonade and donate what you can. Thank you!

  1. That is quite a commitment and good amount for the effort…in the 60’s we got say almost $20.00 or a wee bit more in my time but that was big money to us then too. Great job for keeping the water ways clear of plastic which has a serious impact on oceans and entire ecology! Great Job! 🙂 Dave & Kim 🙂
