Westchester Dwyer Nature Series
Join Dwyer Vet2Vet of Westchester and Guardian Revival’s Another Summit program in our Westchester Nature Series — a free monthly outing designed specifically for veterans and their family members to connect, unwind, and build community.
On the 3rd Wednesday of each month, we’ll gather at a different Westchester County park for a relaxed outdoor experience. Whether it’s a walk, a conversation by the water, or simply time together in nature, each outing is a chance to share stories, make new connections, and strengthen your sense of belonging — all while enjoying the beauty of the outdoors.
This month, we'll be enjoying a 1.4-mile walk around scenic Swan Lake in the Rockefeller State Park Preserve just outside of Pleasantville, NY. Rockefeller State Park Preserve offers quiet countryside walks of all lengths through forested hills and valleys surrounding sunlit pastoral fields. Thirty miles north of New York City, the property is the former Pocantico Hills and Rockwood Hall country estates of John D. Rockefeller family and William Rockefeller, and has over 45 miles of scenic carriage roads, perfect for walking, biking, or simply exploring.
Coffee and donuts provided!
