It’s Spring Mayflower time again. Join us in enjoying a natural area as a beautiful garden.Hike leader Amy Riley will lead us to spots where the Wild Blue Lupine can be seen and will seek to show us a variety of nectar plants that sustain the Karner Blue Butterfly population in the Pine Bush.
For more information please call 465-8930. Meet at 10:00 A.M. at SUNYA Campus Bus Stop, Collins Circle, 1400 Washington Ave., Albany. (Park in parking lot and walk around to in front of bus shelter). People without cars can catch rides with the walkers with cars. The hike is free and all are welcome! No reservations needed, and you are welcome to bring your friends!
The event is free and open to the public!
Note: Due to the increase in global warming, the winter ski, snow shoe, and skating events of Save the Pine Bush will be listed in reverse of the way they have been announced for the last several years. We cannot respond to the advance of global warming the way that more Ski Resorts in the North East are doing with making more and more artificial snow. Our winter outing events will, now, all be announced simply as a “Hike” with the after thought of skiing or skating or snowshoeing weather permitting.
For hikes in spring, summer & fall:
Take the usual precautions against UV radiation
and lyme disease: UV sunglasses, sunscreen, wide brimmed
hat, light-colored clothing, long-pants and long sleeves.
Show up in the latest environmental style.
For bike rides:
We will travel on the streets together, and follow all traffic laws. Please wear a helmet. Please note, all CDTA buses are equipped with bike racks, in case you want to use a bus for part of your trip to and from the beginning and end of the bike ride.
