All six of those arrested have been released and will appear in court at a later date.
Authorities decided to increase surveillance on the Grace Richardson Conservation following complaints about 'lewd and sexual activity' taking place in the vicinity earlier this month.
On August 9, concerned citizens called the cops to report a public hookup happening in the wooded area.
The CT Times reports that the Grace Richardson Conservation is listed online as a popular spot for public sex.

The park has been advertised on at least one 'City Hookup Guide' as a meet-up spot, alongside other Fairfield locations including a commuter parking lot and a local McDonald's.
Police say they will continue to monitor those sites, as well as internet listings, in order to keep public spaces 'appropriate and safe'.
According to the CT Post, Dobbins has previously been charged with second-degree breach of peace by Connecticut police
Witnesses said they spotted a him walking around a park naked, before police found him inside his car 'with his shirt and shorts draped over him and no underwear'.
Charles L. Ardito and Otto Williams were also allegedly busted during the woodland romp. Photographs of Richard Butler, 82 and his wife Joyce Butler, 85, were not available
