Next Stop...Newton Creek, Brooklyn!
Saturday, June 15th, 11:20 am | Kimmel Center, 60 Washington Square South, 11:10 am
**You will be leaving Kimmel at 11:20 am SHARP.**
There are few better ways to understand New York City than from the perspective of the waterways that built its commerce and industry. We'll launch from the heart of it all--Newton Creek--the oldest industrial waterway in America, the birthplace of the Civil War's Monitor, and later an oil spill 3 times larger than the Exxon Valdez, and now a Super Fund site. Despite all this, in recent months we have seen Dolphin, Seals, Egrets, Kestrals, and more. We;ll start with safety and paddle instruction, then spend an hour on Newton Creek and the East River with incredible skyline views. If conditions allow, we will eat our lunch on the water.
You will receive an email in return confirming your spot. ***You may sign up ONE friend but you MUST provide their net ID and phone number. We will not be able to accommodate non-NYU individuals.***
