Due to the pandemic, the usual Fall clean-up has changed form. Thanks to the Brookhaven Free Library for this wonderful alternative:

All welcome
October 1-31, anytime
The Great Give Back is a community service initiative created by the Suffolk County Public Library Directors Association and the Suffolk Cooperative Library System to provide a day of opportunities for the patrons of Long Island libraries to participate in meaningful, service-oriented experiences.

This year, we are celebrating the positive difference we all can make during the month of October. By acting separately, or in small groups, we can collectively impact our community for the better! Call the Library to request a cleanup kit (garbage bags, gloves, hand sanitizer) and commit to cleaning your block, a neighborhood park, a local beach–wherever, whenever and with whom you are comfortable doing so. Then, email bfl@brookhavenfreelibrary.org a picture of your haul so we can see your efforts and provide service hours (if needed). Please register at the Library.
