LI-DOG Pack Walk™ at Calverton Pine Barrens State Forest

*** THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED! ***

Due to concerns with COVID-19, we regretfully are cancelling our pack-walk on March 29th.

We sincerely apologize for any disappointment or inconvenience this may cause but look forward to seeing you and your pups at the next one. Be well, and stay safe.

Please join LI-DOG for our first Pack Walk™ of the 2020 season as we visit the Calverton Pine Barrens State Forest, a forest reserve in Wading River, for the first time.

For our March LI-DOG Pack Walk™, we will be walking an approximately 2.5 mile section of a 7.6 mile loop trail. There is ample parking at Veterans Memorial Park, which is off Middle Country Rd. in Wading River. We will be meeting and starting our walk from there. We will then walk by one of the old 10,000-foot runways that were part of the Grumman Flight Test Facility, before we turn south to follow the trail by Grumman Blvd. Once on the Grumman Blvd. trail, we will walk to a small pond and through the woods, passing the Isaac Dog Park and finishing the walk at Veterans Memorial Park. Though the trail has been rated moderate, the part we will be walking is a very easy walk as it is newly paved, perfectly flat and has no change in elevation.

The walk should take approximately 1 hour. For those who wish to walk further, please let one of our pack leaders know and we will try to have a group that will accommodate you. The extended walk, which will increase the length of the walk by approximately 3.5 miles, will go over to Grumman Memorial Park where several jets significant to that company are parked, before heading back.

Please join us for what should be a GREAT first LI-DOG Pack Walk of 2020!

PLEASE NOTE: Dogs MUST remain leashed AT ALL TIMES! Please do not bring Flexi Leads as we'll be walking in groups and people and dogs can get tangled. Also, please bring water and poop bags - as cleanup is a must.

• In the event of inclement weather, please check Meetup or our Facebook group as we will post any weather-related changes by 9 AM Sunday morning. *

We hope you and your pup will join us on the 29th!
