Description
During this community event, you will have an immediate positive impact on the environment, meet new people and enjoy the ocean view. Afterwards we join together in a guided meditation on the beach. Long Beach Meditation co-sponsors this event with community activist Justin Rudd and his Community Action Team which has been doing this valuable work since 1999. By volunteering to help remove trash before it infiltrates our coastal waters, you are helping protect aquatic wildlife along the Long Beach, Orange County, and Los Angeles coast.
Upcoming 2025 Dates:
July 19th – Jampa Kalsang
October 18th – Jampa Kalsang
We have pledged to sign up and bring out 25 volunteers for these events. Please help us meet our commitment and sign up today!
At 9:30 AM volunteers meet at Rosie’s Dog Beach and progress towards both the Belmont Pier and the Peninsula. Bags, gloves, and refreshments are provided at staffed tables set up for the morning activities. Volunteers are asked to wear shoes and sunscreen; hats are recommended. Dogs are welcome off-leash once on the sand at Rosie’s Dog Beach only. Free parking is available at Ocean Boulevard and Granada Avenue using the kiosk code which is announced before each event.
Immediately following the clean up, join one of our selected Long Beach Meditation teachers for a 30 minute meditation with sand under your feet and the sky above. We will practice standing and walking meditation, immersing ourselves in the sounds and sensations of the ocean and its surroundings. If you prefer to sit we recommend bringing a towel or beach chair. All are welcome.
