Dear JRM and neighbors,
It was very distressing to see this post because members from FERP, the Friends of East Rock Park, cleaned illegally dumped materials from this VERY path on Saturday. We also filled bags and bags of litter dumped elsewhere. Thanks go out to John, Ranger Dan, David, Roger, Peter and Mike who joined me on Saturday. Additional thanks go out to Jim who joined me just today to go out and clean up the crap that someone chucked in the area around the Cold Spring stairway pictured in this post. I am happy to say that much is gone. Please join FERP and be a part of the solution. www.friendsofeastrockpark.org
Thank you.
David Shimchick
Leader of FERP

Thanks to FERP and the Parks crew for all their hard work on this. At this point cleaning up after others is the best we can do, but I really want to work toward a solution where crap isn't even dumped in the first place. To me it's a two-part solution: education (especially to kids though the school system) and (creative) enforcement. There have been SO many suggestions here on SCF about cameras, which are now very inexpensive. It's worth a shot. We all know the few spots where most of the illegal dumping takes place. Try and catch a couple of perpetrators and make a public example of the enforcement action against them.
