Lagoona Kahuna Clean Up Challenge

Get ready for an outdoor adventure that’s fun for the whole family! The Lagoona Kahuna Clean Up Challenge is not your average clean-up—it’s an action-packed competition where families, duos, and individuals come together to help protect the Agua Hedionda Lagoon while having a blast. Grab a kayak, paddleboard, or explore on foot as you race to remove trash and invasive species, all while earning points to compete for the coveted Kahuna Title and a custom paddle!

But the fun doesn’t stop there! Participants will enjoy awesome perks like free ice cream from Handel’s, exclusive event t-shirts, and a delicious lunch—because heroes deserve a treat! Plus, expect surprises, friendly team challenges, and an unforgettable day making a difference in your community.

Last year, our amazing volunteers removed over 4,000 pounds of debris, proving that when we work together, we can create a cleaner, healthier lagoon. Whether you’re looking for a unique way to spend time with your family or want to teach your kids about environmental stewardship, the Lagoona Kahuna Clean Up Challenge is the perfect way to get outside, have fun, and give back.
