Paint-A-Bucket, Winners Announcement!

Jury hard at work!

First of all, we would like to thank everyone who participated in making this contest happen, from the volunteers who organized the walk to the talented painters, kids and adults. We were very pleased to discover the amount of work and thoughts that went into planning the design for each bucket and the results are astonishing! The jury had a very hard time picking up the winners and after some long debates they all came to an agreement, so here are the results:

Know A Place For A Bucket?

Some of our new buckets will replace our current ones but we have a few extra! We really would like to place some of these new beautiful buckets in places that are in need. So, do you know of a spot that gets a lot of cigarette butts in San Mateo County?

Send us an email (info [at] pacificbeachcoalition.org) with the exact location of where the bucket should go and our team of volunteers will add it to our list of hot spots for consideration.
