Be the Difference


This group came to Hampton at 3:30 on a Saturday to participate in our daily beach clean up.  They braved parking and traffic and 10 of them helped clean the beach.  And the beach....well the beach was so CLEAN today except for the ever present cigarette butts.  The kids were calling what little trash they saw and racing to collect it.  8# of trash was collected in total.  Afterwards critters were visited and crafts were made by even the biggest of the kids.  Thank you so much!
