If you’re going to Liberty State Park this weekend, the picnic area is a popular place.

There’s shade, a breeze and million-dollar views. It’s a spot that needs a little refreshing every now and then, too.

Employees with Goldman Sachs spent a volunteer day in the park, repainting the picnic benches.

About two-dozen people took hours out of their day to keep the favorite spot looking news.

The effort was in conjunction with Jersey Cares and their corporate service program.
