More than 1,500 pounds of trash was picked up at the 28th annual New York State Beach Cleanup at Jones Beach this weekend, according to State Sen. Charles Fuschillo, , R-Merrick, who co-sponsored the event.

The event was also sponsored by State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation.
