| 2006 Beach Sweep |
| This was the first year that EMD joined in the clean-up efforts by hosting a Beach Sweep in Ponchatoula, LA. We did not host a picnic, but we gave passes to the big picnic hosted by the Lake Pontchartrain Basin Foundation, which was held in Lake Pontchartrain Park. Volunteers cleaned the parking lots of Ponchatoula High and HWY 22 near the Tangipahoa River.
