Innovation starts with a spark. A glimmer of an idea that ignites into something powerful–something that can change the course of our future–for the better.

And that’s just what’s happened here in Bay Ridge. An idea has been hatched that will enable us to save 100 acres of our struggling woods–woods that stand at the verge of extinction (see why)–woods that define and support the livelihood of our community in so many ways.

The idea is elegant in its simplicity. It’s easy–light maintenance. It’s flexible–on your schedule. It’s fun–healthy, outdoors action with your family & friends. It’s free–no cost to participants. And, best of all, it’s rewarding–you’ll help restore our woods and safeguard our future. Boom.
