First Sunday Hikes in 2008 Ellison Park Blossom Road
Genesee Valley Audubon will meet in the parking lot off Blossom Rd. marked Orchard Grove and Creekside Lodges. We will meet in the corner of the parking lot near the road away from the parking lot entrance. This park is the Irondequoit Creek bottom land; therefore it is wet and hilly. Please Wear Boots. WARNING: This is a very DOGGY park, if you don’t like dogs this is not the park for you. Call June Summers at (585) 865-6047 before the hike if you have questions, you might not be able to reach her the day of the hike.
