Let’s start 2023 right, gathering with family and friends for a stroll on the beach!
UCF’s Green Sanctuary and Adult SE Committees are pleased to announce a New
Year’s Day ceremony and hike at Fort Macon State Park. We will meet promptly at
2 PM on Sunday, January 1, 2023, in the Beach Access area, which is reached by
taking the first right off the main park road immediately after entering the park
(do not drive to the fort). A short access road takes you to the Beach Access
parking area; once there, turn left immediately and drive past the concessions/
bathhouse building (it will be to your right) to the far northeast corner of the
parking area. There are numerous picnic shelters in that area with plenty of
parking, and we will meet at one of these shelters.

Before our short hike, we will hold a special New Year’s Day ceremony. Our goals
will be to banish those negative things from 2022 that may be holding us back and
to plan for the positive things we wish to accomplish in the year ahead. Details of
how you can participate in the ceremony and hike will be provided in The Wave as
we get a little closer to the date. For now, please mark your 2023 calendars!
