Minnewaska State Park Preserve: Sam's Point Area
Join Becca Howe-Parisio,

is a monthly program, focusing on different topics as the seasons change. This
program is suited for anyone who is old enough to read and is interested in
learning how to use a book to identify plants, insects, and more. Participants must bring
water and snacks and wear appropriate
hiking shoes. Meet at the Sam's Point Visitor Center. Pre-registration is
