MANDAHL BAY CLEANUP WEEKEND ANNOUNCED BY DPNR

Commissioner Jean-Pierre L. Oriol of the Department of Planning and Natural Resources (DPNR) is pleased to announce a community cleanup event at Mandahl Bay, St. Thomas, scheduled for Saturday, November 8th and Sunday, November 9th, 2025.

This initiative is spearheaded by the Division of Territorial Parks and Protected Areas (TPPA), which now oversees Mandahl Bay as part of the Virgin Islands Territorial Parks System. The cleanup aims to restore and preserve the natural beauty of this cherished area.

Residents are kindly asked to remove any personal belongings from the site prior to the event. Contractors will be clearing debris from the roadside, beach, and pond surroundings. TPPA staff will be present throughout the weekend to assist and engage with community members.

Let’s come together to protect and revitalize Mandahl Bay for future generations!
