Community Youth at Work! More from the Beach Cleanup

Community and youth groups from in and around Kingston participated in the huge International Beach Cleanup Day at Fort Rocky, near Port Royal… And of course many groups across the island. Here are a few more photos, gleaned from Facebook pages.

Yes, the young people really worked hard and enthusiastically. I am asking them to please work just as hard in their own communities…

Keep your environment clean and garbage-free. Please!

I picked this photo out for personal reasons – Hillel Academy in Kingston is our son’s old school! They were at another spot further down the road from us.

Yes, we’ve been busy…
