Lots of volunteers descended on DeKorte Park this morning and did an awesome cleanup.  A few of the awesome volunteers are pictured above.

Next time we'll have stand behind all the bags of trash they collected.

Details and pics tomorrow!  (Thank you, thank you, thank you!)

Just a word of caution for folks who are coming to DeKorte Park for the cleanup on Sunday (from 10 a.m. to noon).

The park suffered quite a bit of damage, so if you are seeing DeKorte for the first time post-Sandy, brace yourself. Some visitors have found it upsetting.

You'll see pieces of boardwalk missing, plus other damage both major and minor. You'll see parts of boardwalk moved several hundred yards to the next tidal impoundment.  You'll see lots of litter.

And you'll be part of the recovery efforts. Thank you.
