Corridor Cleanup 3
Ten people took time out on Saturday, December 5th, to clean up the Lafitte Corridor in the vicinity of the Sojourner Truth Community Center. Volunteers included two from the Sierra Club, three from Friends of Lafitte Corridor, and three from Tulane University. They dug out the sidewalk (a lot of work) and picked up roughly eight large bags of trash.
Special thanks to Criminal Sheriff of Orleans Parish Marlin Gusman and Major Jerrod Spinney (Community Service Coordinator) for getting the brush cleared away in advance of the cleanup.
Another cleanup is tentatively scheduled for spring 2010.
