Marine Debris Survey

The Bear Creek Explorers are returning to the coast on May 2oth, 2026, for our second annual marine debris survey- and you’re invited!

We’re partnering with Oregon Shores to learn about marine debris, collect data, and make a contribution to science.

This is a great opportunity for homeschool families or anyone else who wants to learn and contribute to science while spending the day on the beach.  We’ll be surveying a site near Florence, Oregon. Reach out for details and to register.

Check out Oregon Shores website for more details on this amazing project!
