Clean, dive, and rock out where no one has cleaned, dived, or rocked out before at Kaiser Park on Saturday, October 20.

The “Beneath the Sea Waterfront Celebration and Coastal Clean-Up” event brings together partners from the Avenue P Project, Beneath the Sea, Inc., Brooklyn Community Board 13, City Parks Foundation Coastal Classroom, Cultural Research Divers, John Dewey High School, The New York City Aquarium, Partnerships for Parks Catalyst Program and the Roddenberry Dive Team for a massive day long extravaganza of fun, education, sports, music, and entertainment.

The day’s events listed on the Kaiser Park Facebook event page include the beach cleanup, scuba diving and hard-hat diving, marine education exhibits and demonstrations, art exhibits, arts and craft activities like pumpkin painting, robots that go underwater, waterfront walking tour, football clinic, and music.

Best of all, you get to meet WABC Weatherman Bill Evans and the son of Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry, Rod! We’re not sure how many Star Trek questions Rod Roddenberry can answer, but he is the leader of the famed Roddenberry Dive Team, which figures to be a key focus of the events activities.
