GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — Thousands of volunteers will be fanning out along Great Lakes beaches Saturday for an annual trash pickup.

Event times vary by location. Visit their website to find cleanups in your community.
It's the largest annual day of action for the Great Lakes.
Teams target beaches and shorelines along all five of the Great Lakes.
It's part of a larger initiative called the International Coastal Cleanup, which draws millions of participants worldwide.
