The City of Carlsbad Beach Preservation Committee invites residents to the second annual Carlsbad Beach Fest, Saturday, May 2, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., at Tamarack/Frazee State Beach and Pine Avenue. The free event will include a beach cleanup, activities for children, live music, sand castle sculptors, a native plant tour and refreshments. Trash and recycling bags will be made available for the cleanup activities. Those interested in the cleanup are requested to bring gloves.

The Carlsbad Beach Fest is sponsored by California State Parks. The Carlsbad Beach Preservation Committee is helping to plan, organize and promote the event. The festival highlights the local coastal and lagoon waterways found within Carlsbad, raises awareness concerning the effects of marine debris and provides an opportunity for residents to participate in a beach cleanup.

Informational and educational event booths will be located on the grassy area adjacent to Pine Avenue and on the beach directly below.

For more information or to volunteer, call (760) 720-7001 or e-mail bketterer@parks.ca.gov.
