Beautify the Bucket

The Beautify the Bucket Competition allows participants to take an active role in beautifying Galveston beaches and improving stewardship behaviors. Participants in the competition paint a blue trash barrel destined for Galveston beaches based on a theme: ocean organisms, marine debris, coastal and marine ecosystems, or Galveston recreational activities. After the competition the barrels will be added to Galveston’s beaches where they will be enjoyed by visitors and encourage proper disposal of trash to reduce aquatic trash.

Competitions are hosted to coincide with the Adopt-A-Beach Coast-wide Cleanup events. Please sign up with the Texas General Land Office and make a day of keeping our beaches clean & pristine!

The registration period is Feb. 10- Mar. 10. Trash Barrels are limited and are distributed on a first-come, first-serve basis. $20 registration fee. Beautified buckets are due back April 15th.

Viewing and judging are held at Menard Park, in Galveston, Tx on:

• Saturday, April 18th, 2020

Individuals and groups of all ages can register for a barrel to beautify.  For more information download the registration and information packet >>>
