A hardy group of about 30 volunteers braved the rain and poison ivy Saturday to continue an effort to reclaim Lincoln Park from the dumping ground for tires, garbage and debris of all kinds it had become and return it to the natural gem it once was.

St. Angela Merici Parish, along with neighbors, the city of Youngstown, CityScape, Youngstown Neighborhood Development Corp. and YSUScape, will be cleaning up, restoring and beautifying Lincoln Park.

Dozens of volunteers were out working Saturday on the south side of Youngstown, cleaning up a commercial property on Glenwood Avenue.

A Saturday morning community workday at 2246 Glenwood Ave. was part of a continuing collaboration between the Youngstown Neighborhood Development Corp. and the Western Reserve Port Authority aimed at remediating blight, beautifying the city and creating business opportunities.
