SUMMARY:Boots and Beer: After Thanksgiving Edition!
DESCRIPTION:Location: Pascoag\nJoin the Burrillville Land Trust for their very popular Boots and Beer event – After Thanksgiving edition! A great way to recharge and walk off a big meal on a fall evening. \nThis 3-mile walk travels along the interior of the Edward D. Vock Conservation Area\, an 86 acre property owned by the Burrillville Land Trust\, a private non-profit all volunteer land trust in the Town of Burrillville. The property is named for Edward D.

Years later\, looking for a place for he and his wife and their three daughters\, Vock bought the land from Father Holland\, a pastor in the Town of Burrillville.

Over the years\, Vock happily set out to turn the land into a forest…later becoming one of the first Tree Farms in Rhode Island! \nThe walk features rolling hills\, stream crossings\, glacial erratics and more. Good hiking shoes are required. Wear weather appropriate clothing. The land trust will bring orange blaze vest for each hiker. It is recommended that each hiker bring their own orange blaze. Water bottle and a snack may be a good idea to bring as well. Leashed dogs are welcomed. \nAfter the walk (around 3:15pm)\, we will drive to Bravo Brewing Company. Cash bar. For a donation of $20\, the land trust will give you a ticket for either a flight of beers or an individual glass of beer. \nRSVP by clicking “going” on the Facebook or Meetup event or by calling (401) 447-1560. \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:RAIN DATE: Kite Flying at Jacob's Point (Drop-in afternoon!)
DESCRIPTION:Location: Warren\nNOTE: This is a drop-in style event. A member of the Land Trust will be on the beach from 12pm-3pm. You do not need to arrive at the start time! Come anytime during the 3 hr period to fly a kite! \nGO FLY A KITE! Join the Warren Land Conservation Trust for the 2nd annual kite flying event. Drop in anytime between from 12pm-3pm! You can use one of the Land Trust’s kites or bring your own. This beach looking over the Warren River has a steady on-shore breeze for just about any kind of kite. Fun for ages 3 to 103. \nJacob’s Point is a hidden gem off the East Bay Bike Path. Enjoy the beach\, watch the boats go by\, or watch the osprey\, purple martins and salt marsh sparrows. This beach is literally off the beaten path. \nJacob’s Point is located off the East Bay Bike Path 1\,000 feet south of Locust Terrace\, where there is on-street parking (please do not park beyond the bike path on this road). It also is 1\,000 feet north of ASRI’s Nature Center and Aquarium. \nWe will be practicing social distancing – we can’t fly the kites too close together anyway. We respectfully ask that if there are more than 15 people in one area of the beach\, groups move farther down the beach to remain spaced well apart. \nParticipants must wear a face covering. This event is FREE. \nRain Date: Aug. 30\, 12pm-3pm\nSevere weather will postpone this event to the rain date. Updates regarding weather will be posted to this Meetup event. \n*NOTE: This event will be limited to 40 attendees. This is higher than other Land Trust Days events since it is a “drop-in” style event\, and there is a lot of space for distancing along the beach. All attendees (including guests – limit 3) must be pre-registered on this MeetUp event. \nQuestions? Send us a message on Meetup. \nDirections to the beach will be sent out to everyone who has registered on MeetUp prior to the event date.
