Join us for a Surfrider Foundation Massachusetts Chapter Beach Cleanup and a Sierra Nevada Brewing Company After Party to celebrate Hands Across the Sand! We will be cleaning up Carson Beach in South Boston and then heading to nearby pub Local 149 with Sierra Nevada to celebrate the launch of their new beer Sierraveza. We hope to see you there!
Hands Across the Sand is worldwide demonstration where people hold hands in silent solidarity for 15 minutes to show support for clean energy and to stand against the continued expansion of fossil fuels.
The schedule is:
