The loyalties of coastal residents and visitors are evident in participation in varied groups that partner with Sea Grant. For example, N.C. Big Sweep ‚ a statewide, waterways cleanup program with more than 230,000 volunteers in the past 20 years‚ was initiated as N.C. Beach Sweep by former North Carolina Sea Grant marine educator Lundie Spence.
