Director Golden and staff tidy up Shipyard Park in the Navy Yard

Sep 01, 2015

Taking advantage of the nice summer weather, BRA Director Brian Golden and staff opted for clean-up clothes instead of their usual suits on a recent visit to Shipyard Park in the Charlestown Navy Yard. The BRA operates and maintains the park where staff gathered last Thursday, with help from the Facilities Management and Maintenance Department, for the clean-up effort.

Director Golden would like to thank everyone who rolled up their sleeves to get the job done, including Dick Mulligan, Ed McGuire, Phil Cohen, Frank Mayo, Paul Myers, Maasai Mathis, Frank Lopes, Bonnie Rosario, and Sam Cardoza, Sr.

Here are some photos of the crew in action!

Paul Myers (pictured at left) lends Director Golden a hand. Paul, a summer intern in the Navy Yard, is a resident of Charlestown and will return this week to the University of New Hampshire for his senior year. We thank him for all his hard work this summer and wish him the best of luck at school.

Ed McGuire shows you can have some fun while cleaning. We’re pretty sure you should point that thing at the ground though.
