SUMMARY:Mamacoke Island Hike: A Walk in the Park
DESCRIPTION:Explore the cultural and natural history of Mamacoke Island and the surrounding landscape. The rocky\, wooded\, 40-acre island is actually a peninsula that juts out into the Thames River. It is connected to the mainland by a 4-acre tidal salt marsh. The shoreline area is known to have been a settlement site by Indigenous people going back 5\,000 years and the salt marsh was farmed during the first years of colonial times in New London. Now a natural area within the Connecticut College Arboretum\, the tidal and upland areas are designated as an Important Bird Area by the National Audubon Society. Hosted by: Sea Grant and led by Maggie Redfern\, Director of the Connecticut College Arboretum Please note: This will be a rugged 2-mile walk along a trail on uneven terrain\; participants should dress in long pants and wear appropriate shoes. No facilities at site. Meet and park at the east end of Benham Avenue\, Waterford/ Quaker Hill\, just before the railroad tracks. Tickets: $25 and must be purchased in advance through FareHarbor Parking: Approximate address of parking area: 56 Benham Ave\, Quaker Hill\, CT 06375-1702
