Nancy- I just saw your message about the clean up at Leddy this past
Sat. Thanks so much for organizing this effort-I am sure it does look a
lot better. Glad the weather didn’t diminish your efforts. I am very
pleased that the “Friends” have been organized and am sure that it
will
result in many benefits for the park. Thanks again for your leadership
in this matter.

I just want to thank all of you for coming out to help clean the park. It was a very successful day. We collected 14 bags of trash and a decent amount of metal/junk and blankets. We did a great job covering most of the park. We had a total of 11 people. This includes a whole family and someone that saw the activity posted in the Burlington Free Press, he lived in the old north end. Some folks walking on the beach jumped in to help and thanked us for doing our good work.

A group of people did the trail maintenance. The large pieceof metal was removed from the trail and the braces are put in place to bank up the sloped trail for future dirt or gravel deposit. Two hour slot was perfect. I can really see a difference when I walk through the park. Thank you to Lisa Coven for supplying the trash bags and gloves and maps.

I wish we took more pictures. Ron McGarvey took some pictures of the bulk of trash set down by the dumpster.

What a great success for Friends of Leddy Park. I look forward to finishing the trail work and planning more events to ensure a healthy park.

Thank you again,
Nancy Powers
Co-chair of Friends of Leddy Park
