HURRICANE SANDY UPDATE STATEN ISLAND 3/30/13: Ocean Breeze and the shore areas of Staten Island are coming back to life for Spring as the sun came out this weekend, the tents, trucks, contractors, and volunteers are working, and so is Cadette Troop 5327, on the last leg of their Silver Award Project: Spring in Ocean Breeze. As families start to return to their homes after five months, needs remain, to replace what was lost when every single thing was gone. As you prepare your Easter and Passover meals this weekend, think about what you are using in your hands to cook: meat thermometers, wooden spoons,big cooking and stirring spoons, spatulas, hand can openers, salt and pepper shakers, dish towels, potholders, potato peelers, potato mashers, ladles, whisks, bottle openers, etc. Been to a bridal shower? This is a WISHING WELL FOR OCEAN BREEZE, items collected can ship to Cadette Troop 5327 c/o 622 Quincy Avenue, Staten Island, New York, 10305. Stay tuned for spring hurricane cookie distribution thanks to the Girl Scout Council of Greater New York, and Flowers at the Beach for Cinco De Mayo. The sun is finally coming out, peeps, and Troop 5327 Rocks the Hurricane: We Are the Champions!
