Volunteer Spotlight: Creek to Bay Site Captains

I Love A Clean San Diego is lucky to have more than 200 dedicated site captains that support the organization twice a year with our countywide cleanups, Creek to Bay and Coastal Cleanup Day. Last month, while preparing for the 11th Annual Creek to Bay Cleanup, we had a chance to get to know a few of our site captains a little better.

Meet Aimee Edmonds, site captain for our Mira Mesa, Hage Elementary cleanup site

Meet Billy Paul, site captain for our Pacific Beach, Rose Creek cleanup site

Meet Javier Hernandez, site captain for our Logan Heights Chollas Creek, 33rd & National Ave cleanup site
