Five organizations joined forces yesterday (March 19) morning to clean up walking trails in the hills that surround the Shek O Beach.
Some 100 members were able to fill more than 50 garbage bags with used plastic bottles and bags, and other litter as they walked up the Blue Ridge to converge at the peak, after two hours.
The clean up drive is a community service project of the the Grand Hong Kong Eagles Club and its counterpart, Grand Hong Kong Lady Eagles Club (GHKEC/GHKLEC).

They were joined by Sikap Association, Anda Hope Association Hong Kong and GS Indonesian community group.
"This is the first community service that we held in Shek O highland," said Sikap President Lester Esquilona.
"By picking up plastic and all the garbage along the pathways of the trail, we are able to help the environment."
Their next project will be to sweep through Repulse Bay Beach to Deepwater Bay Beach on June 10, bearing garbage bags up and down the beach to pick up litter.
