Oasis Marinas will celebrate National Marina Day with over 25 marina cleanups throughout the month of June.
Oasis Marinas, the Annapolis Maryland based marina management and experience company, is kicking off its National Marina Day campaign for the third year in a row, where boaters, staff and industry partners are invited to help clean the waterways in and around all Oasis Marinas properties in June 2023.
National Marina Day is a marine industry holiday where marinas honor their local boating community’s and their environmentally friendly marina practices by hosting marina cleanups. Oasis Marinas began celebrating in 2021, where the Oasis team and their Baltimore based boaters combined efforts to help clean up the Inner Harbor at Lighthouse Point Marina. This year, almost all Oasis properties, across 13 states, will be participating and hosting marina cleanups of their own. This will enable the entire Oasis boating community to participate in helping keep the waterways we love pollution-free.
To make this year even more special, Oasis has partnered with a few significant regional organizations to help with the cleanup efforts including:
· Lippert
· Chesapeake Bay Foundation
· Ohio Clean Marinas Program
“Our National Marina Day initiative is such an important campaign for us at Oasis Marinas and we are thrilled to continue to positively impact our waterways and include our boating community in this cause,” said Oasis Marinas President, Matthew Shipman. He continued, “We are driven to operate certified clean marinas as a company, and work diligently to be environmental stewards in our industry, and led the way on incredible initiatives like National Marina Day.”
