Our coastal clean-up was very successful. We collected 367 lbs. we spent time to explain how we maintain, protect and continue to focus on new methods of protecting the marsh and the cove. We appreciate the efforts of our dedicated volunteers.
Thank you very much to the more than 70 people that turned out on a cool and damp Saturday for the 2017 Annual Stillhouse Cove Cleanup. Mayor Fung stopped by to lend his support to the great efforts of the volunteers.
