NYRA Meet 4: Heckscher State Park on July 22nd 2007
The Fourth NYRA meet will be on Sunday July 22nd, 2007 at Heckscher State Park in Suffolk County Long Island. Heckscher State Park has millions of visitors every year helping the park obtain its status as one of the top 100 parks to visit in the United States. The park contains hikinig trails, bike paths, and even a swimming pool complex. There are picnic areas with shade and large parking areas. Since this is a State park like bear mountain there is a cover charge of $6 per vehicle (not per person).
The time will be announced shortly depending on the outcome of my visit this week to the park.
Directions will also be posted shortly but there really very simple.
Take Cross island or I-495 to Southern State Parkway. Take that till the Southern State ends and follow signs for the park, badda bing baddda boom.
We can make this the replacement event for Rotorfest. Our meets average between 50-70 cars per event.
Park charges $6 per vehicle, we have trees, benches, we can BBQ (everyone chips in and we eat as a family), they have other amnemities.
So hope to see everyone there. NY, NJ, CT, MA, NH, PA, MD everyone is more than welcome to come =)

Okay guys i just posted directions on how to get to the park in LI
http://www.nyrotary.com/Pages/Heckscher_State_Park.htm
It took me about 45 minutes to do, so please check it out and see if that helps you guys out. I put the directions more or less form queens cuz your not going to get to LI without coming into queens.
I did it from North, Central and South Queens so i think i got it pretty much covered.
Please check out the pictures with the directions to get a better idea, if a link doesnt work let me know thanks
I think i did a good job lol
I will also post more info about the Caravan from queens (north) if anyone wants to come with me.
I will also post a time for the meet and where to go in the park, since its a big park lol
Thanks
