National Grid employees, local leader and area residents prepare two sites for warm weather use

On April 20, National Grid hosted Earth Day employee volunteer events at Seatuck Environmental Association and the South Shore Nature Center located in Islip. The Seatuck Environmental Association is a not-for-profit, member supported organization dedicated to promoting the conservation of Long Island’s wildlife and environment, through education, research and advocacy. Seatuck operates The Suffolk County Environmental Center, a 70-acre public nature center located near the shores of the Great South Bay. The South Shore Nature Center is a public recreation and outdoor education facility jointly owned by the Town of Islip and The Nature Conservancy. The South Shore Nature Center has 206 acres of woods and a range of habitats including a sandy shoreline overlooking the Great South Bay and a beautiful untouched forest. National Grid volunteers participated in a variety of outdoor projects at both sites including grooming trails, clearing and dispersing fallen tree branches, spreading woodchips and removing debris.
