It was Central New York Conservancy's annual "Clean Up the Park Day" and Utica Rotarians were there.
 
 
Volunteers from the Rotary Club of Utica wielded rakes, shovels and trowels to participate in the Central New York Conservancy’s annual ‘Clean Up the Park Day’ at F. T. Proctor Park in Utica on Saturday, June 17.
 
The day’s work included unearthing, cleaning and rehabilitating a long-neglected historic stone staircase plus grooming the areas of the lily pond, bath house, park pathways, streams and the parking lot. Special thanks also to Notre Dame High School’s NJROTC cadets and the Utica DPW.
