2015

We thank our #volunteers and NewYorkCares for the regular efforts to revitalize
Astoria Park, our green space heart.  <3  This of course is in addition to the
much needed care done by the NYCParks and staff. We appreciate the gardening,
weeding, debris removal, mulching, bench painting, and many other park activities
done for love of the environment and of the community.

Our cheers to each and all!
