Trustee and sixth-grade teacher at the Middle School, David Cataletto, was at the East Hampton Shellfish Hatchery on Three Mile Harbor to help glue eelgrass seeds to clams. It’s one of the projects the “Do Good Be Good Club” participates in to help grow eelgrass in our harbor waters.
David formed the group only last year and already the club boasts over 50 members. The students work on projects that help the town from Montauk to Wainscott that include beach clean-ups, building oyster reefs in various harbors approved by the Trustees and the Shellfish Hatchery with Director John Barley Dunne, and the eelgrass seeding.
David is an enthusiastic mentor for his students, encouraging them to give back to their community by helping to “do good” which will also instill in them a sense of accomplishment and pride in their “be good” contributions.
No question that Trustee David Cataletto is a leader for the future of East Hampton’s youth- “Do Good Be Good Club” is making our communities better!
