Equinox Walk - Central Massachusetts
September 21, 2025 — 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm ET Last day to register: September 19, 2025
Join TVOP volunteers Jake and Vicki for our first Central Massachusetts volunteer event in 2025!
On this 1-mile almost-equinox stroll, we’ll enjoy a boardwalk trail that crosses over wetlands and a historical waterway. Bring your binoculars if you have them! Common characters seen include ducks and red-winged blackbirds.
We ask folks under the age of 18 to please register themselves and an adult to accompany them. If you require a service dog to attend, please let us know and we’ll collaborate with you on how to keep you both comfortable and hydrated at this event.

Information for our land acknowledgment was gathered from nativeland.ca, which provides an estimate of original indigenous land occupation, but does not take into account migratory patterns or movement of the many surrounding communities. We recognize the historical complexity of indigenous movement across the land, and honor with gratitude the many, many surviving native nations whose land we benefit from in our work to diversify the outdoors.
