Somers House of Trash

from NCNLocal.com: A letter of thanks

Thank You to News12,  BRIA Carting and the Lions Club of Somers.

Many thanks go out to the News12 reporter who rapidly responded to our plea for help to save Cypress Lane in Somers from the "House of Trash." He said they cover stories like this one to try to get help. Luckily, help arrived in the form of BRIA Carting! They saw the story on News12 and offered the resident free dumpsters to help clean the property. The Somers Lions Club generously provided manpower and the clean up began. After five 30-yard dumpsters were filled, an optimistic individual with a vision, who had also seen the News12 story, purchased the property and is now working on the 8th dumpster! We can see the ground again, and it is beautiful. We are very grateful to all those who helped, and encourage everyone to support the above organizations that truly serve our community so well.
