[nysbirds-l] Charging at Nickerson Beach - Clarfication
I just called the office at Nickerson Beach and they gave me a different story than the persons I spoke to who were actually collecting the entrance fee last weekend. The official story is: They are not yet charging during the week until after Father's Day. Weekend hours (including Friday) are 9-5, until after Father's Day, even though the staff collecting the entrance fee stopped at 4:00. After Father's Day they will stop charging at 6:00 pm every day of the week.. BTW. The entrance fee is $30.00 for non-residents.

[nysbirds-l] Charging at Nickerson Beach
They currently charge between the hours of 9:00 am and 4:00 pm. The schedule changes on Father's Day. The staff doesn't yet know what the new schedule will be. In the past they started charging at 8:30 am. The hours they stopped charging have varied from after 5:00 pm to after 6:00 pm, depending on the year and day of the week.

I've never seen Arctic Tern in New York and would love to visit one of these areas. However, I am not a resident of either Nassau County or Suffolk County. As far as I can see, the parking fees for nonresidents at these parks are exhorbitant. I wonder if there is any way around this? Maybe some thoughtful local group could organize a trip to the area.
