Lydia Rush, left, of Poulsbo, was one of the vendors at the glass float show at the Westport Maritime Museum Saturday. Rush displayed the floats she’s collected over the years, mostly during her time living in Japan. Here she talks with a family that had just returned from the beach cleanup and glass float search that ran along with the show. Vendors had floats of all shapes and sizes for sale and were available to appraise floats brought to the show, including some found by beach cleanup volunteers that day.

About 1,500 pounds of trash collected by volunteers from the beaches between Westport and Tokeland was brought back to the Westport Maritime Museum Saturday. The cleanup was organized by the Olympia chapter of the Surfrider Foundation, Twin Harbors Waterkeepers, and the Grays Harbor Stream Team. Pacific Seafoods provided a truck to haul some of it away, and the Pacific Coast Shellfish Growers Association helped out. “The support of the industry is a great help in this whole process,” said John Shaw, museum director. “It also helps with the recycling of some of the materials.”
