Today was a great day, RWA kids and teachers came out to do a beach cleanup event. They were joined by two people from Brooklyn and two people from Manhattan. A family from Beach 56 Street and one resident from Rockaway Park came out to help as well. We collected more than 25 bags of debris, a bicycle, a car wheel and a huge pile of garden refuge, and a pile of cement waste and chunks of tar-top.

We started to take down one of the three piles of buldozed junk.

The group circled the bay up to the sandspit, and took a little time out to study the fish and other fauna.
