DIY Station of the Month

Each month we award a "DIY Station of the Month" to highlight some of the huge monitoring efforts taken by the CoastSnap community using the "DIY station" option in the CoastSnap App. The winner of this monthly award gets to see all their snaps converted into a timelapse video to watch their beach change over time.
