Celebrate Earth Day with Monmouth Park System

Nobody celebrates Earth Day like we do!  In fact, we need a whole weekend for everything we have planned.  Our annual Earth Day Celebration at the Manasquan Reservoir Environmental Center, Howell, is on Saturday, April 21 from 11am-5pm and features nature walks, boat tours, crafts and much more.  Then on Sunday, April 22, the fun spreads to other parks with Eco-Fashion Fun, Snakes & Reptile Shows, Spring Plant Walks and more.  See all our Earth Day plans.



Here are a few other things to enjoy:



  • Junior Gardeners on Saturdays, April 21-June 9 from 1-3pm.  Children age 8-12 are invited to plan, plant and tend a garden at Deep Cut Gardens, Middletown.  Please bring gardening gloves. Fee and registration required.



  • Paddle-Fish-Relax on Sunday, April 22 from 8:30-10:30am at Thompson Park, Lincroft. We'll have tandem canoes, paddles, life jackets and fishing gear for a relaxing outing on Marlu Lake.  An additional session is offered from 10:30am-12:30pm.  The cost is $20 per boat.  Registration recommended but not required.  Cash or check only for drop-ins.
