Fun in the Park...

lecture during a public sail on the
A. J. Meerwald, New
Jersey's official tall ship; upon
Meerwald's arrival back at
Alpine Boat Basin,
participants are treated to the sight of a "sun dog."



Children and their parents explore the Park with "Rachel's Rangers," a summer
hiking series with the staff of the
Kearney House. On the first hike, they go to
"Cape Fly Away"...

The next hike takes them to "Who Rock" from State Line Lookout (including a
glimpse of some unusual "graffiti" at Ruckman Point)...


The third hike (after starting out with an unusual visitor in the parking lot)
takes the group along the shore to explore old bathing beaches and a
19th-century cemetery hidden in the Park...

Jonathan Wood and the Raptor Project visit
State Line Lookout
for an annual program co-sponsored with area nature centers.

Bill Boesenberg of "Snakes-N-Scales
and Turtle Tales" presents a program at
State
Line Lookout with Blue, an American alligator, Daisy, an albino Burmese python, and Ainu, a Nile
crocodile.

A fundraiser at the
