Join families exploring the forest in Orange County, New York!

All ages, all weather, all abilities welcome!

Expect a pace and rhythm of the children that attend, through unstructured, free play.

Watch as the benefits, the magic, and fun of playing in the forest unfolds!

WEATHER: 6/29 partly sunny, 80 degrees

LEADERS:

Michelle DiLorenzo (michelledslp (at) gmail.com) and Kerri Haack (kerri (at) Harriman State Park(link to google map location). We'll meet in the Lake Skanatati parking lot.

Note: We have VERY limited cell coverage there, so can't really answer messages/texts.

If you arrive late... when you are in the Lake Skanatati parking lot, take the trails to the right of the lake. Follow the trail along the water and you'll find us!

Tips: We love this spot because we've never seen a tick there. When it's warm enough, I can see us swimming. We may still wear swim suits and swim shoes, and bring a change of clothes just in case we take a dip. I expect we'll be heading out deeper into the woods while we wait for the water to warm up.

Tick prevention!
