CAMDEN, NJ — Camden County residents, police department members and other stakeholders recently cleaned up parts of the city’s Cramer Hill neighborhood.

The workers spent time yesterday picking up trash and clutter as well as raking up brush and leaves in the area around 29th and Pierce streets next to Von Nieda Park.

“By residents and law enforcement working together to clean up our streets and parks, we can make a real difference in the quality of life here in our city,” Camden City Mayor Victor Carstarphen said in a press release.
