DAVETREK ADVENTURES

Sunset at Haleakala Crater—January 2005 © David Brotsky

 

Here is the plan:

 

A) Go to a really nice park (one of the best in Western NJ!) full of activities in the NJ, with singles, couples, families and kids,

B) Give people choice of a variety of things  like beach swimming at Sunrise Lake (pictured above and at additional cost—see below*), volleyball, hiking, etc (including nothing at all but hanging out)

C) You can also choose to visit nearby Wightman Farm** , which has peach and nectarine picking, at additional cost **—see below or visit Jockey Hollow, adjacent to Lewis Morris, with a self guided walking and hiking tour with interpretive signs and some historic houses and remnants of encampments—this is a famous revolutionary war site where the entire Continental Army spent its time during the coldest winter of the war.

 

D) End the day with both groups at a 4:30 PM kosher catered dinner for all (carnivores, omnivores and vegetarians), with volleyball and other activities
