<strong>The</strong> volunteers<br />
ast Saturday morning 40 volunteers showed up at the Harbor Village Marina<br />
L to participate in the beach cleanup organized by Sea Turtle Conservation <strong>Bonaire</strong><br />
(STCB) and STINAPA. <strong>The</strong>y managed to fill many bags with trash from No<br />
Name Beach and the east side of Klein <strong>Bonaire</strong>. Most of what they picked up from<br />
the beach is trash that is blown off the main island and brought to Klein <strong>Bonaire</strong> by<br />
the strong easterly trade winds.<br />
No Name Beach is <strong>Bonaire</strong>'s primary hawksbill and loggerhead nesting beach and<br />
maintaining unobstructed access to beaches for egg laying females is extremely important<br />
to the survival of these endangered animals. � STCB release<br />
