Volunteers from the East Meets West Parent Education Club recently cleaned the beach in front of the Cabrillo Marine Aquarium in San Pedro.
The volunteers each grabbed a trash bag and a pair of gloves and set off to pick up trash along the shore.
After scouring the beach, the volunteers and their families gathered for a picnic in the shade of palm trees by the bay and then visited the aquarium.
