The Hawai'i Kai Youth Service Club is organizing a storm-drain stenciling project set for June 17.

The event will run from 9 a.m. to noon. The meeting place has not yet been determined.

Volunteers are needed to help stencil storm drains to warn passers-by about pollution. The message reads, "Dump No Waste — Take Care of Our Ocean."

Each year, thousands of gallons of household pollutants are washed down streets and storm drains that empty directly into reservoirs, streams and the surrounding ocean.
