Trash

Two New Jersey Eagle Scouts, now adults, are at the forefront the Central Jersey Stream Team, which enlists volunteers to help clear trash out of the Raritan River in Somerset County.

When I was at The Community Medical Center Seaside Park Boardwalk Studio for my show last Friday afternoon, going into the 4th of July weekend, I noticed something as the afternoon turned into evening - after the people cleared out, the beach was a mess.

One thing that we struggle with every year here in Ocean County is the relationship with visitors. We love to have people come and see what we have to offer here at the shore, but we also expect visitors to treat our home as they would treat their own. As you can see in the photo above, that isn't always the case.
