 BEACH
GREEN FAMILY PICNIC Walk, bike or
skate to our new patch of green at 2030 Ocean Avenue
for an afternoon of fun on Sunday, May 18 from 11
a.m. to 2 p.m.! Bring a lawn chair, blanket,
picnic basket and of course sunscreen and check out
Santa Monica's newest eco-forward feat - BEACH
GREEN! More than just a pretty patch of grass, this
tough turf stops pollutants before they reach the
Bay, reduces the heat given off by asphalt and can

annually). Join us to celebrate with a day of
