Jess + Chris Volunteer in Red Hook.


We all know that Hurricane Sandy had its way with much of Brooklyn. And if that weren't  bad enough the nor'easter that pounded through on Sandy's heels added to the misery and devastation

The community of Red Hook -- low-lying, on the water, very vulnerable -- was particularly hard hit.  Civic leaders and residents from all over the Borough of Brooklyn rose to the occasion and volunteered generously their time, energy and passion.

Chris and Jess (of the Greenpoint neighborhood) donned gloves, boots, mops and shovels and headed to Red Hook.  Our do-gooders did the needful, including cleaning up a key part  -- the liquor supply -- of a local bar and grill.

Wonder if the kids were offered a Maker's Mark on the rocks in gratitude?
