The St. Maarten Marine Trades Association (SMMTA) would like to remind all interested parties that this Saturday December 6th is the general clean-up of the Simpson Bay lagoon. The President of the SMMTA Brian Deher stated “the clean-up was originally spearheaded by the Minister Maurice Lake and The SMMTA is happy to take part in this initiative which has been organized and funded by both the public and private sector.” The SMMTA would like to echo The Ministers call for “everyone to get involved, and clean-up our environment.” The clean-up and removal of hurricane related debris and other refuse within the lagoon will start at 8am on Saturday and all volunteers are asked to meet at The Yacht Club Isle de Sol in Simpson Bay.
