Join fellow Longhorns for a morning of service on Galveston Island, then stick around for lunch and beach time! Day-of Details: * Check-in: 8:30-9:00 AM. Chapter representatives will check in our entire group and collect supplies from Adopt-A-Beach [https://www.glo.texas.gov/coastal/adopt-beach/cleanups].

Instead, please gather together, and a chapter representative will pass out supplies and instructions to our group. * Cleanup: 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM, we will cross the street to the beach and * Optional Post-Cleanup Lunch: The Spot [https://www.thespotrestaurants.com/locations-menus/thespot/], just a ten-minute/half-mile walk from Menard Park.

Let's celebrate Earth Day by showing our Texas coast some Longhorn love—then refuel with good food and good company! 🤘🌊🌍
