<p>We couldn't be more grateful to all the volunteers over the years who have helped beautify the 23-acre Jay Estate (wearing every color T-shirt from yellow to purple)!! From uncovering hidden flagstone paths, to raking leaves and planting annuals. We've participated in every <b>I Love My Parks Day</b> with <b>Parks &amp; Trails NY</b> and <b>NY State Parks </b>since 2012! Partner groups have included the <b>Girl Scouts, Cub Scouts, Mount Vernon Youth Bureau, Yale Alumni, Con Edison, Rye Neck School, Mamaroneck School, Stanford Alumni, the Rye Garden Club, Rye Sustainability Committee</b> and many more.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Sign up yourself, your family or your group today! Click on the link below and select <b>the Jay Estate. </b>Ideal for students seeking <b>community service hours</b> or adult groups who just want to give back! Event starts at 9am and finishes at 12pm but you can help out for just an hour or two - whatever works for your schedule.</p>
<p>And join us for <b>FREE</b> ice cream from <b>Jimmy's Soft Serve</b> afterwards as our small way of saying thank you.</p>
<p>_____________</p>
<p>Our non-profit, the<b> Jay Heritage Center (JHC)</b>
is dedicated to transforming the 23-acre Jay Estate into a vibrant educational campus, hosting innovative and inclusive programs about American History, Historic Preservation, Social Justice, and Environmental Stewardship.</p>
<p>We hope to encourage people of all ages to understand, preserve and protect our shared heritage and to inspire future historians, civic advocates and stewards to safeguard our fragile cultural resources. Learn more at <b>www.jayheritagecenter.org</b></p>
