Keepers of the Rock is an all-volunteer group that adopted the Town’s namesake Rock Park in hopes of making significant improvements to the area. In her seventh year as a Crew Leader, Michele works with the group during monthly restoration dates from April through November in partnership with the Town’s Teen Court program as part of the Town’s Adopt-A-Park program.
