We will be participating in the B. Bay Blitz in Little Egg Harbor Twp. We plan to focus our work on Great Bay Blvd, where our Terrapin Project is based. We also plan to have a team to help mend and repair our barrier fence on GBB.

Duties: Volunteers are asked to help pick up trash in the Barnegat Bay watershed. Trash bags will be provided by the Twp. or DEP for the trash clean up. For those who would like to help mend and repair our barrier fencing volunteers are needed to help fasten and hang a plastic mesh fence to metal posts with zip ties. Metal posts may need to be replaced and or installed where they have been vandalized or stolen. Some sections of the fence may need to be pushed into the ground more (it was installed in a trench) with shovels. Also, brush needs to be picked up along the length of the fence where brush mowing took place this past winter. Some other brush might need to be cut back in places with shears and pruners.
