Opinions on what to improve in Mission Beach

Mission Beach is our first area of focus for making improvements. Trash, recycling and keeping this area clean seems to be the concern of not only the residents but also the City of San Diego. Pilot programs to recycle have started, but the growing awareness of living GREEN have left residents questioning where they can go to recycle and do their part in saving the planet.


Summer Highlights
 
BBQ, Fundraiser, Volleyball Camps and more

Adopt-a-Court campaign has been a success! 12 new nets will arrive in early June! Thanks to Bill Walton, Clem Abrams, Maygan Fowler and many more that contributed, these court will be renewed for the summer and beyond. A BIG thank you to all that helped with the repainting of the poles in April! Come celebrate with us on June 8th with a BBQ at 12 noon at the courts.

Summer is a great time of year to celebrate the beach and everything going on there. Please review our events and join the festivities, contribute to making the beach better and keep in touch with friends, family and everybody who loves Mission Beach. Our goal this year it to make sure the beach stays clean and help the community with their recycling program.

A few things to look for: Beach BBQ in June at South Mission Beach (Jetty Dr-beach side), summer volleyball camps and clinics, listening to some great live music at our fundraiser, July 11th, at the WaveHouse, BBQ and bon fire in August, and our famous San Diego Six-Man Volleyball BeachFest in October.
