The Museum Volunteers for the Environment (MUVE) hosts monthly volunteer workdays for anyone who is passionate about restoring Miami’s natural environment, and on Saturday, February 4, we’re making it special for members!

We strive to enhance the resilience of Miami’s coastlines through a range of initiatives, from habitat restoration, coastal clean ups, and citizen science, to collaborating with local organizations to promote conservation education.

Join us for this special members-only workday to get to know your Frost Science community while helping to make a difference in our environment. At this event, member volunteers will participate in two activities: nuisance invasive species removal and a beach cleanup. It’s time to #getmuving!

Capacity is limited and all participants must register by Thursday, February 2. Participants under 14 years of age must be accompanied by an adult. Participants under 18 years of age must have signed waiver by parent or legal guardian.

Please wear sun protection and closed-toed shoes.

  • All materials, water, and snacks will be provided. We encourage you to bring your own reusable gloves, reusable water bottle, and download the free CleanSwell app on your smartphone to collect marine debris data during the event.

Directions to check-in

  • For GPS Directions, enter Virginia Key North Point Trails. When arriving, enter Virginia Key Beach Park on Arthur Lamb Road and pass a toll both. Tell the attendant you are volunteering with Frost Science, and they will give you complimentary entry. Keep right at your first fork in the road, then keep left at the second fork. Follow the road until it ends, and you will see check-in located at the picnic tables.

Safety

  • The completion of both a Miami-Dade County liability waiver and a Frost Science liability waiver are required to participate in this event. All necessary waivers are included in the registration process. Park staff will provide a safety briefing and orientation to the specific volunteer activities at the start of the event.
