Cedar Point County Park Blind Dedication

I am so very proud to be announcing the completion of the handicapped blind, located on Alewife Pond, at Cedar Point County Park in Suffolk County, NY. This is the 4th blind in the series of the 3 blinds previously completed at:

  • Southaven County Park, Blind 9

  • Penney Pond at Hubbard County Park in Flanders

  • Big Reed in Montauk County Park

  • Cedar Point County Park in East Hampton now makes the 4th

The guys out in Cedar Point erected this blind in record time, and they did such a great job. Thanks goes out to Nick, Mike and the crew who orchestrated this project. Many thanks to Freddie Graham who funded most of this project. We will meet at the check in station at around 11:30ish, then we will head over to the blind. We will dedicate the blind, get some food afterwards that I am providing and then head home.

I can’t believe that all 4 are completed. It seems like only yesterday that John Adams and I were in a blind at Southaven Park saying "It sure would be great to get Jean out here to see the park, hard to do that since she is in a wheelchair. Why can't we make a ramp?" That is the history of the birth of the Suffolk County Parks Projects.

Thanks to Riverhead Building Supply for their help, NYS Department of Environmental Conservation for making sure it's done correctly. Mostly Nick Gibbons at Suffolk County Parks for pushing everythng through. Contact Curt at 631-355-6258 so he can get a food head count for that day.

See you there.

-Curt
