East Coast Greenway Celebrates 10 Years

On September 12, 2004, eight cyclists set out from the Canadian border in Calais, Maine, for a 55-day bike ride to Key West, Florida. These pioneers were the first people to travel the entire 2,900-mile East Coast Greenway route.  Read about the inaugural trek and this Sustainable Raritan River Collaborative partner on their website at http://www.greenway.org.  And learn more about the 98 mile New Jersey section of the Greenway at  http://www.greenway.org/explore-by-state/nj.

    National Lighthouse Day - tour Sandy Hook Light
    Starts: 12:00 pm
    Ends: August 7, 2022 - 5:00 pm


    Description:

    National Lighthouse Day is August 7

    On August 7, 1789, Congress commissioned the first federal lighthouse and approved the Lighthouse Act that established and supported the maintenance of lighthouses, beacons, buoys and public piers. Each August 7, the United States celebrates National Lighthouse Day, honoring the important role played by lighthouses through the years as beacons of safety for vessels at sea.

    This Tuesday, August 7, 2018, the National Park Service is celebrating National Lighthouse Day with free tours of the Sandy Hook Light from noon to 5pm. First lighted on June 11, 1764, the Sandy Hook Light is the country’s oldest surviving lighthouse, and is now part of the New Jersey component of Gateway National Recreation Area.
