International Coastal Cleanup
The rising tide of marine debris threatens human health, wildlife, communities, and economies around the world. The International Coastal Cleanup is the world's largest volunteer effort on behalf of ocean and waterway health. Join us to help clean our waterway AND collect data about what we clean up.
We will need people for cleanup duty AND people for clipboard-trash-tally duty.
Bring your own gloves, drinks and snacks. Be sure to dress appropriately for the beach and weather conditions.
Clean Community will provide grabbers, buckets, bags, clipboards, data sheets.
The Fall 2026 Beehive Magazine
It's HERE! Check out the Fall 2026 edition of "The Beehive!"
In case you haven't read it before, our quarterly magazine is a one-stop shop for County news and resources, volunteer information, community events, and activities for youth and adults.
We'd like to thank our talented community photographers for submitting photos used in the publication, especially Betty Burton, whose photo appears on the cover. We never miss a chance to celebrate Gloucester's beauty.
America's 250th and Gloucester's 375th
This summer is a special time to be an American, and beyond that, a historic time to live in Gloucester County. Did you know that we're celebrating the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, and the 375th anniversary of Gloucester's founding?
The folks over at Visit Gloucester and Parks & Recreation are pouring their hearts into planning celebratory events. There are so many ways to learn about our history, and commemorate our journey, that we had to make a video to line them up for you.
Better Service. Stronger Gloucester.
