When you go on your summer adventures, know how to be safe in the woods! Hiking and climbing is a great way to exercise, explore, and hang out with friends, but it's easy to get hurt or lost if you don't prepare ahead of time. Join members of local nonprofit New Jersey Search and Rescue (NJSAR) to learn what preparations you can take to avoid having to call Search and Rescue teams to get you home! This presentation is ideal for parents, caregivers, families, and children of all ages.

Join the Mountain Rescue Unit of local nonprofit New Jersey Search and Rescue (NJSAR) for demos of the climbing and rescue equipment they use to help lost or injured people in the woods.

Take this opportunity to showcase your special skills! All ages are invited to join us for this special community open mic organized by some of this summer's TLC teen volunteers. Whether you dance, sing, play an instrument, recite poetry, or something else entirely, you are invited to showcase your talent here. If you're not quite ready to take the stage yourself, join the audience to support all the amazing talent East Brunswick has to offer! Light refreshments will be provided.
