Phrag Fight! 

Join Seatuck on Friday, April 21 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. as we work to safeguard the unique natural restoration that is underway at West Brook in Great River, NY. The work will take place at the site of the former West Brook Pond, which was a man-made pond until 2019 when its dam (built 120 years ago) failed and the water drained away.
