Thrill Seekers

By New York Family Posted on July 23, 2010

If there’s one thing we know about
kids, is that they love adventures, especially in the summertime! With that in
mind, we’ve compiled a list of our favorite nearby destinations for physical
activity in the great outdoors, from hikes to kayaking to oyster shucking. So
slap on some sunscreen and bug spray and pack some healthful snacks; it’s
adventure time!
