As we continue to celebrate the Oregon Beach Bill’s 50th anniversary year, CoastWatch Volunteer Coordinator Fawn Custer has added a couple of beachwalks to her activities this weekend. She will discuss the natural history of the shoreline and the contents of the driftline, and also talk a bit about the Beach Bill and what it means to CoastWatch. 

Fawn will meet beachwalkers at Battle Rock in Port Orford at 7 a.m. this Saturday, July 22, to lead a walk, lasting approximately two hours.

The event is free and open to all.  Please invite along anyone who might be interested.

The beachwalk precedes a training for the COASST beached bird survey, which CoastWatch’s is co-sponsoring as COASST’s Oregon partner.  The Port Orford training on Saturday begins at 10 a.m. in Oregon State University’s Port Orford Field Station (444 Jackson St.).  Find details on the training on the website, https://oregonshores.org/coastwatch.
