There is a new branch of psychology that contends that involvement with nature is necessary to our mental health. Living in Black Rock, we have an amazing natural resource within our community -- the Ash Creek tidal estuary. The Ash Creek tidal estuary is one of the few remaining feeding stopover areas for palearctic shorebirds as they travel from Hudson Bay in the Arctic Circle to as far south as Argentina. This fabulous migration occurs in the fall and spring.
The Black Rock Community Council will once again sponsor the annual Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony, which will take place on Sunday, December 7th beginning at 5 PM at the Brewster St. flagpole. Festivities will include music, hot chocolate and cookies, a visit from Santa, chestnuts roasting on an open fire and of course the tree lighting.
If you put your leaves in brown paper recycling bags (for sale at Stop & Shop, Home Depot, Lowes, etc.), you can put them out with your recycling.
