Dear Dune Grass Planting Volunteers,

A very great thank you for an outstanding contribution to our wonderful Park!! Your work was done with care, with a wonderful sense of cooperation, and with great enjoyment. It will be most satisfying to see "what we have wrought" when the grasses take root and flourish.
All told, over 70 of you "bent" to the task and accomplished the work in a remarkably short time.
Several volunteers also remained to assist with erecting the remaining 100' of snow fencing, West from the dunes, in order to protect the dunes from being trampled. We will shortly be sending out a request for volunteers to assist with completing the fencing West as far as the concession stand and also East from the dunes.
We were particularly gratified at the turnout from the following organizations: Save the Sound, Friends of Hammonasset, Menunkatuck Audubon Society, the Beardsley Zoo, and unaffiliated volunteers. Thank you again. Peter and Sallie
