Parking is limited, but there is a small parking area at the center and parking on the street. Carpooling is suggested if possible.


Terri Gorman will lead us on a tour of the Brock Center. She will be discussing the Pleasure House Point “Wetlands Restoration Project” which started in March and should be completed in October 2025. We will eat lunch after the tour. Sternos may be used to keep the food warm, we will be discussing the menu in June. After lunch members may explore by hiking the trails.


Since it is an environmentally sensitive building, it only requires refillable water containers. No styrofoam products are allowed. 

TATC members will come together to enjoy a picnic lunch at the pavilion. Please feel free to relax in the Adirondack chairs located on the upper deck and enjoy the view. After lunch, we will hike along Crab Creek and Pleasure House Creek.
