Please join us for our Annual Meeting on Sunday, June 9th at 4 pm at the Nature Center.

Meet and vote for the 2024-2025 Board and Officers. Our new Park Supervisor, Jill Scheibenpflug, our Nature Center interns and fellow park enthusiasts will all gather for this annual Friends of Sherwood Island event. Our Friends’ Garden Team and Tree Committee will update you on the work we’re doing in the Park. There will be ample time for questions, either formally or informally, before and after the meeting, as you enjoy refreshments.

If you’re in the park early, at 2 pm, join a Nature Center intern to survey the beach for Horseshoe Crabs, which mate on Full and New Moon tides.

Bring your binoculars for birding from the porch at 3 pm. Use our spotting scope to check in on our resident Osprey. See if you can spot a Bald Eagle. Observe the Purple Martins caring for young in the colony nest boxes right in front of the Nature Center.
