With the acquisition of a 2.12-acre Key Largo property, Florida Keys Community College made an historic step in its goal to expand services to the residents and industries in northern Monroe County.

The date is set, September 1st, when the Conch Republic Marine Army will tackle the clean up of the mangroves and waterways of Ramrod Key. With thousands of hits on their website, (conchrepublicmarinearmy.com) organizers expect over 200 volunteers to join this worthy cause of getting the hurricane debris out of the mangroves and canals that, to date, have been severely neglected by local, state and national government.

Due to hurricane cleanup operations in canals throughout Monroe County, contractors will use temporary staging sites for debris collection across Monroe County, including Rowell’s Waterfront Park in the Upper Keys. This will require the park to close in mid-August (sometime after August 12). County Officials expect operations to continue 7-8 months.
