The Registrar will work to organize rides and to notify participants when a rental car may be necessary. Registrar will also inform participants of the carpool fee, which is based on the trip location; the cost of any rental cars should be split evenly by those participants.Meeting Point: After your registration is confirmed, the Registrar will share directions, the exact meeting place, and time with attendees.Schedule: Full-day trip.Relative Difficulty: Four to five miles of relatively flat ground, with some short, moderately steep hills.Trip Description: Sandy Hook is one of New Jersey’s premier birding spots, with a wide variety of interesting habitats to explore, especially during spring and fall migrations. Three hundred sixty-five different species of birds have been reported here, 43 more than at New York state’s highest hotspot, Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge. The barrier spit is in a unique location separating lower New York Bay from the Atlantic Ocean and is an excellent location for shorebirds, terns, warblers, and flycatchers.\n\n\n\nRegistration: Registration opens at 9 am on Monday, September 7.
