Fw: Northern Manhattan Parks Update

 
Northern Manhattan Parks
 
Hurricane Sandy brought down or damaged over 500 trees in Northern
Manhattan Parks. Our clean up and recovery efforts have benefitted
from helping hands both local and regional. We sincerely thank the 500
plus volunteers that have helped us in Fort Tryon, Inwood Hill Park
and with our partners in Sherman Creek Park. More work remains to be
done. Work off your extra Thanksgiving calories and volunteer in
Northern Manhattan Parks.
