Watch the sun rise over the ocean on the first day of 2023. Listen to the waves wash against the rocks as the sun rises. We'll look for the green flash, breathe the cold air and enjoy the first rays of sunlight. It's the beginning of another trip around the sun! Bundle up! Bring chairs and hot beverages to sip and enjoy the sunrise. Stay to take a walk to learn how plants and animals adapt to survive the cold winter months, on an easy 3/4-mile loop of the shoreline and woodland paths. Meet at the High Head rose garden.
