TAP-SF: Beach Cleanup and Tea Talks Lite

Join TAP-SF to help keep our beaches clean and beautiful at a local beach cleanup, followed by Tea Talks Lite getting to know each other better!

For the beach cleanup, we are joining Pacific Beach Coalition in their monthly beach cleanup of Sharp Park Beach in Pacifica. All materials for volunteers will be provided, including buckets and gloves. We only ask that you sign Pacific Beach Coalition's volunteer waiver ahead of time. More information about the beach cleanup is available here on their website.

Afterwards, join us at Breakers Breakfast, Brunch & Lunch for Tea Talks Lite! To continue fostering connections that take the pressure off making your own small talk, we will be recreating our Tea Talks event from April but in a more casual way. We will still provide conversation cards with prompts you can use to kick off your conversations in small groups during lunch, but we won't time the discussions nor ask you to rotate (unless you want to!).

We hope to see you at both parts of the event, but feel free to also just come for one or the other! Register for this event here.
