KGIB Marsh Royalty Crowned

The 2025 Keep Golden Isles Beautiful Marsh King, Queen, Prince and Princess have been crowned and officially begin their reign!

Together the newly crowned royals participated in combined 85 Marsh Madness cleanups this March:

• Marsh King: Dr. Matt Mosley - 23 cleanups;

• Marsh Queen: Sharon Hindery - 21 cleanups;

• Marsh Prince: Rick Hindery - 21 cleanups;

• Marsh Princess: Deborah Cumby - 20 cleanups.

With 46 Marsh Madness salt marsh and marsh adjacent cleanups held, these energetic four were at a whole heaping bunch of them! To honor this huge accomplishment, the fantastic four were treated to lunch where KGIB board members Tammy Fluech and Cheston Broomell performed the coronation ceremony, complete with crowns, sashes and official Marsh Madness royalty ID cards.

The 2025 Marsh Madness salt marsh and marsh adjacent cleanups were a HUGE SUCCESS thanks to tireless VOLUNTEERS, SITE LEADERS, COMMUNITY PARTNERS and our SPONSOR:

• 46 Salt Marsh & Marsh Adjacent Cleanups Conducted;

• 9.5 TONS of trash and debris removed;

• 70 tires removed;

•  549 TOTAL volunteers worked 1,870 total hours.

  
  

Again, all but two of these locations are areas that are cleaned ONLY by KGIB Volunteers!!! Thank you to all involved! Marsh Madness is sponsored by Georgia-Pacific Brunswick Cellulose and is part of Keep America Beautiful’s Greatest American Cleanup.
