The Moon and Canoes at Sandy Hook

Here are three outings for this weekend at Sandy Hook.

Fall Equinox Walk
Building #18, Fort Hancock
Saturday, September 22, 6 PM - 8 PM
It is called the equinox because it's one of only two days in the year when daylight and darkness agree to equally share the 24 hours in a day. Truth or myth - can you balance a raw egg on its end? Not sure, but it's a great day for an early evening walk on the Hook. Free, call the American Littoral Society at (732) 291-0055 to make reservations. ♥1 mile

Canoeing on Sandy Hook Bay
U.S. Life-Saving Station Parking Lot (between Lot D and Lot E)
Saturday, September 22, 9:15 AM - 12 PM
Take a two-mile morning paddle to explore Sandy Hook bay from an ideal vantage point-the water itself. Rangers guide a two and a half hour tour of the bayside waters and Skeleton Hill Island. Go to recreation.gov to make your reservation.

Harvest Moon Walk
U.S. Life-Saving Station Parking Lot (between Lot D and Lot E)
Sunday, September 23, 7:30 PM - 9 PM
"Harvest moon" is the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox. Bring a flashlight for this night walk that utilizes the five senses. Call (732) 872-5970 to make reservations. ♥1 mile
