'No Matter What Garwood DPW Is On The Job': Hero

GARWOOD, NJ — When times are tough, heroes emerge. We all know someone who's making a difference right now as we live through unprecedented and changing times.

Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize these heroes making a difference in their communities. Together with Ring, we’re working to let all your neighbors know about these outstanding people and their stories.

This submission comes from Carol Spratt who is nominating the Garwood Department of Public Works.

Name: Garwood Department of Public Works

Home town: Garwood

Reason for recognition: They collect our garbage and clean the park for our enjoyment. No matter the request they always comply.

One thing to know: They are friendly, very helpful to me, and no matter what they are on the job.

Thank you for all you do, Garwood DPW!
