Update on our Thai Muang Beach Project

Our President just recently visited with the local government, Khoa Lampi National Park Service, and Phang-nga Coastal Fisheries Research and Development Center in Thai Muang District, who are all stakeholders of Thai Muang Beach, and they are all very anxious for our beach clean-up to start. They will be joining our clean-up day and will be providing guest speakers to give a speech to the students and local community members who participate in the clean-up. The local government will also be broadcasting our event over the local radio and we will be planning for it least 200 participants.

We are looking at raising around $3,000 to fund this project and so we are now looking for donors who can help us purchase garbage bins, recycle bins, no littering signs, and informational signs about the ecology and biodiversity along Thai Muang beach. Tentatively we are planning to hold the clean-up day on Saturday, Jan 23rd, 2010.
