Well you marveled at how short the Edgemere wikipedia entry was, wait until you see how long the dump entry is!

Also, if there was anyone to write about the Bay Rat club...

OMG that's so crazy about the dump entry. What?????

I was scrolling and scrolling and then I just started to laugh. 227 citations!

Link to Bay Rat club, please. Can't find.

I couldn't find any information on the Bay Rats, only that painted sign that's in the photo with the Dead End sign above. They've been around since 1973 so there must be some stories there. Corner of Norton and Beach 38th.

When I went to Edgemere last November, I tried to walk through Rockaway Community Park to the landfill, but I couldn't find a route there that didn't involve finagling my way through a DOS gate.
