Panama City, FL – October 18, 2025 – Eco Clean Marine is proof that you don’t need a crowd to create change! This weekend, a small but dedicated group gathered at Uncle Ernie’s in Panama City for a morning of community action and environmental care.
In just one hour, two volunteers collected 4 five-gallon buckets of trash, raising awareness about the growing issue of litter hiding in plain sight.
“Our waterways deserve attention, no matter the size of the team,” said Courtney Dombroski, Founder & CEO of Eco Clean Marine. “Even a few committed people can make a difference when they show up with purpose. Every cleanup counts, and every piece of trash picked up brings us closer to cleaner, healthier oceans.”
The Panama City cleanup showed the power of passion and persistence. From cigarette butts to plastic debris, the group’s efforts helped keep harmful waste from entering local waterways, protecting both marine life and the beauty of the Gulf Coast.
Eco Clean Marine continues to host cleanup events across the region, inviting community members, schools, and organizations to get involved. Each event proves that it’s not about the number of volunteers, it’s about the shared goal of keeping our coastlines clean and our oceans thriving.
