After reading one of my favorite Dr Seuss books, “What was I afraid of ?”…..Our park cleaners got to work with brooms and gloves cleaning Von King Park in Bed Stuy. We were happy to report that there was not as much trash as we expected. Our older kids counted the cigarette butts and did find a lot of those, along with some remnants of picnics and bbq’s.

We finished off out day with a picnic if our own, but we made sure not leave any of our trash behind!
