Full Corn Moonrise and Ridge Walk – Cancelled!

September 6, 2017 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Weather forecasts for heavy rain with thunderstorms have informed our decision to cancel the full moon walk. Please stay tuned as we will pick another full moon date later this year for a walk.

Neutaconkanut Hill Conservancy and the Providence Parks Department along with Rhode Island Land Trust Days and Blackstone Go! invite you to escape your work day routine for a guided walk capped by the full corn moonrise from the summit meadow. At 6:30 pm, meet to enjoy a short walk featuring the trees of Neutaconkanut. By 7:30 pm, we’ll be back at the meadow to watch for the full moon rising over Providence.

Dress for the day’s weather and bring a flashlight. This walk is free, but we suggest a $5 per family donation to help support the work of the Conservancy. No advance reservations required. Suitable for ages 5 and up. Dogs on leash are welcome. Insect repellant is also recommended year round as a precaution against ticks which carry Lyme Disease.

You may choose to skip the walk. If so, plan to meet us at the summit meadow around 7:30 pm. Any cancellations will be noted on the Neutaconkanut Facebook page.
