Thirteen volunteers made a positive impact during the Sinclair Inlet cleanup, filling one dumpster and requiring additional support from WSDOT for overflow. The event, which lasted three hours in late September 2025, showcased community commitment to environmental stewardship. Volunteers collected litter, which helps maintain the area's ecosystem and aesthetic appeal before fall debris sets in. Local sponsors played a crucial role in facilitating the cleanup, demonstrating the power of community partnerships. The next cleanup is scheduled for April 18, 2026, encouraging ongoing civic engagement.

This initiative reflects a broader trend of increasing public participation in local environmental activities. Previous cleanups have successfully removed significant amounts of debris, enhancing local water quality. Such efforts are vital for sustaining the health of Sinclair Inlet and its surroundings.
