I bought a Spa Vac ($35-55.00) that does a wonderful job of getting sand and other fine particles.  They require no electricity, and in fact, I use mine quite often to get small pockets of debris from our pool as well.

Boarding school.
If you can't sell it on eBay, it may not even qualify as landfill.

Retired (mostly) from the industry after 33 years...but still putzing around with a consumer information website, and trying to sell obsolete owners manuals

Put a shallow container of water in front of the spa steps.  
Like a wallpaper tray or something.
Walk thru the water on the way into the spa- helps keep the dirt out in the first place.
