World Peace Day

A couple weeks ago my friends and I went into the city for World Peace Day. The day before we had made a Peace Dove out of bed sheets from the Stony Brook Hospital, chicken wire, and bamboo sticks. We went into the and we paraded the dove with other doves around a park and then while we were parading Jane Goodall. It was awesome. After we paraded the doves we went to a college a we got to here her speak. It was so cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Old Mill Creek Clean Up

I think we should clean the local Port Jefferson creek leading to the ocean because it is REALLY
disgusting. My friend and I found an old street sign that looks like it could be from like, 1899!!! I really think that we should use clam digger pants and gloves to clean out the garbage and weeds and bottles. I think it would not only look better, but smell better too ya know? The air would definitely be less polluted and the water would be too. So I think we should have a healthy harbor day to help the L.I.S. Plus water testing is next Friday!!!
