Civics Club Cleanup with Andrew Otazo

A coastal cleanup focused on environmental awareness and community action takes place along the waterfront at Miami Marine Stadium. Taking place Saturday, April 25, this Civics Club Cleanup is led by environmental advocate Andrew Otazo and invites participants to engage directly with local ecological issues.

The event combines hands-on cleanup efforts with discussion around pollution in Miami, including the types of debris most commonly found along shorelines and their impact on surrounding ecosystems. Participants will spend the morning collecting waste while learning about practical ways to reduce environmental harm.

Presented by Miami Civics Club, the program emphasizes civic engagement and education through active participation. Attendees are encouraged to come prepared for outdoor conditions, with appropriate clothing, sun protection and hydration.
