Beach Sweep Rescheduled To April 15 By Bob Vosseller OCEAN COUNTY – Area beaches were set to be cleaned as part of the annual Beach Sweep but an April Fool’s Day prank by Mother Nature had them be washed instead. Clean Ocean Action had scheduled sweeps throughout the area on April 1 but now they have been rescheduled for April 15. Information on them
can be found at cleanoceanaction.org/beach-sweeps. Another is scheduled for October 21. On the morning of April 1, volunteers arrived at Ortley Beach and started to set up for the day. They decided the mission would continue on, at least in Ortley Beach. They were joined by some dedicated volunteers who ignored the rain. (Beach - See Page 5)
