Start the year off with a brisk walk along the shoreline, dunes and woods of Fort Tilden. You’ll hike to the top of the Battery Harris East hawk watch platform and get great views of the ocean, bay and NY harbor. After the walk meet at the Rockaway Artists Building for coffee, cake and champagne! For more information call (718) 474-0896 or email Don Riepe at donriepe@gmail.com.

This is a partnership program between NYC Audubon, Gateway NRA, and the American Littoral Society.
