While the weather was not conducive to spring cleaning, that did not stop a group of determined volunteers in their goal of sprucing up parts of Barnegat Township on March 7. It’s all part of an Adopt-A-Street program launched by local high school students Nora Hansen, Jenna Marcy and Skylar Dasti.

They established the program last fall; the March 7 event was the first cleanup for the spring, with more to follow.
