Program Description

Event Details

Did you know that there are at least 70,000 acres of recreational and wooded parkland spread across Long Island from Queens to Montauk? Take an armchair tour with The Savvy Sightseer to visit some of her favorite Long Island parks and preserves. Find out why and how these parcels of land escaped development to become public respites, lear their histories and even how they came by their names. Each one has its own story to tell.
