  1. Dinosaurs at Field Station: Located in Bergen County, The Field Station is a wild scientific expedition with over 30 life-sized, animatronic dinosaurs. Workshops, games, and activities connect the story of the dinosaurs to our world today, giving new relevance to their lives.
  2. Fleet Week at Liberty State Park: Now in its 4th year, this Free event celebrates the sea services and gives citizens and unparalleled opportunity to meet Sailors, Marines and Coast Guardsmen as they showcase the latest capabilities of today’s maritime services.

The Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area on the borders of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York allows paddlers to slip down the river between low forested mountains, anglers to wade in the trout streams, hikers can scan the valley from the ridge or peer into the 1000-foot-deep Water Gap, along with River and Backcountry camping.
