APC Receives Grant from New York Community Trust

by Anita Wright

In December 2010, the Accabonac Protection Committee was awarded a $5,000 grant from The New York Community Trust, made at the suggestion of Serena Altschul, 2010 recipient of the Friend of the Creek Award and our neighbor on the Harbor. In addition to supporting our ongoing work to protect the Harbor, the grant will help fund making a new film in the “Long Live Accabonac!” series. The new film will focus on the effects of nighttime lighting on the ecology of marine and other environments. APC deeply appreciates this generous support of our efforts to protect the Harbor and its watershed.
