Annual Cleanup
Every Spring since 1970 the organization has sponsored a cleanup of the
wetlands, woods and shoreline.
During
the first year’s cleanup, some seventeen car wrecks were hauled out, along
with literally tons of other refuse.
Fortunately,
those days are past. In recent
years the cleanup crews have been occupied primarily with collecting the large
quantities of (mostly plastic) refuse that floats in on the tides.
The 2009 Cleanup -- our 40th annual! -- will be held on Saturday, May 2, starting at 10 a.m. All are invited; meet near Aurora Pond on the Back Road (Sandhill Road), just west of the Little Neck railroad station. And join us for a post-cleanup luncheon at Memorial Field in Douglaston.
