Students Against Vandalizing the Earth banded together with the help of SAVE advisor Jesse O’Neill and Computer Science teacher Daryl Detrick to reconstruct the bridge near the Pohatcong Native Arboretum after an act of vandalism left it unsafe to bear the weight of hikers. Pictured are SAVE members, junior Elisha Stenger in front and freshman Thomas Finnegan in back. “This project has been great because it has allowed the Track team to use that space again and has allowed members of the community to use the trails again,” said O’Neill. “The community suffered a big loss when we suddenly couldn’t use the whole loop of the trail.”
