Long Island’s Natural History

On Mon., May 18th,Tara Rider will present a program on the Island’s natural history. We have an appreciation for the beauty of our island and surrounding waters, but don’t know how it was formed and evolved. From salt marshes, cranberry bogs, hardwood forests and the Hempstead Plains, our Island has been continually shaped. Come learn about the Island’s natural history. The program will be held at the Islip Public Library, 71 Monell Ave., 7-9 pm. The program is free and open to the public. For more info: www.isliphamlethistory.org, 631-559-2915.
