Demonstration content. This event was written for the prototype to exercise the calendar, its filters and its accessibility fields. It is not a scheduled HHFT event.
This event exists in the prototype for a specific reason: it sits inside the window of a scheduled closure of the River Reach on the same morning. When that notice becomes active, this event is automatically flagged to staff as possibly affected — flagged, not cancelled. An automatic public claim that an event is off is the kind of thing that ruins somebody's day incorrectly, so a human confirms it before anything changes on the public page.

Eco-Steward work day
Little Stony Point — Meet at the Little Stony Point parking area on Route 9D. Look for the HHFT banner. Parking there is limited and fills early on summer weekends; the walk from Cold Spring station is about a mile along the road shoulder, so arriving by train means allowing 25 minutes on foot.
Volunteer habitat work with HHFT staff along the corridor: invasive removal, planting and site care. No experience needed; tools and gloves provided.

Tide talk at Dockside Park
Dockside Park — Meet at the Dockside Park waterfront, about a five-minute walk from Cold Spring Metro-North station.
Forty-five minutes at the water's edge on what it means that the Hudson here is a tidal estuary — timed to low water so there is something to look at.
