10.30am Saturday 20th- Meet at the boat harbour carpark next to Otago Yacht Club.

A workout while cleaning up the environment!

Become a Plogger and pick up rubbish in the area whilst running or walking. Come for as little or long as you like. Any rubbish we collect prevents it from potentially blowing into Otago Harbour.

As a workout, Plogging provides variation in body movements by adding bending, squatting and stretching to the main action of running, hiking, or walking.

Bags and gloves supplied, but feel free to bring an old supermarket bag and gardening gloves if you have them.

More about Plogging: Originated in Sweden, the word is a combination of the Swedish words for jogging with picking up litter. It started as an organised activity in 2016 and has spread to other countries following increased concern about plastic pollution.

Look out for details for this Earth Day event or events in future on the Plogging Ōtepoti Dunedin Facebook page.

Cost: Free | Just turn up on the day or click ‘going’ on the Facebook event.
