Come down to the lovely Conference House Park for an evening stroll. As the sun sets, the summer forest becomes delightfully cool, and it is possible to see and hear more of our animal community. Learn about the flora and fauna of our forest and become aware of all the efforts taken to protect and improve the ecosystem at this southernmost point of New York State. This walk will be held rain or shine. Good shoes and a water bottle are recommended. Restrooms and tap water are available at the Visitors' Center, where we will start and end the walk. If you plan to attend, please RSVP so we know how many people to expect. To RSVP and for questions, call (718) 390-8021 or email cheri.brunault@parks.nyc.gov. Hope to see you there!
