Hudson Highlands Nature Center invites you to the
Ponies Up! Carousel Dinner
Honoring the
New York - New Jersey Trail Conference
Saturday, November 9, 2024
6pm
At The Carousel Pavilion at Bear Mountain State Park
Event Co-chairs: Steve & Mandy Bywater, Susan Maloney, Lynn Peebles & Doug Land
At Ponies Up!, a fundraising event which replaces the “Champagne Brunch” that the Nature Center has hosted at the Powelton Club for the last 17 years, we will be honoring the New York / New Jersey Trail Conference for their 100 years of constructing and maintaining hiking trails – including those used by HHNC! These two organizations work perfectly together, with the Nature Center helping children to establish a love of nature and the Trail Conference providing the trails they’ll use to explore it for a lifetime. We are proud to call attention to their long tradition of environmentalism and community service.
We hope you will join us in honoring the NY-NJ Trail Conference by joining the Benefit Committee
and/or placing an ad in the event journal.
Your gift will provide vital support to help us connect children and families to the beauty and transformative power of nature.
