From Route 9 North or South in Middletown, proceed eastbound over the Arrigoni Bridge (Route 17) and at the fifth stop light, take a left onto Middlesex Avenue. At the stop sign, turn left onto Brownstone Avenue. Parking will be on your right.
Meet at the life vests just inside the entrance to the park.
We had a beautiful day at the Brownstone Park! And although the water was a bit bracing, the partly sunny day helped warm everyone up. Attendees included Minh, Doug, Luke, Lucas, Greg, Shawn, and newcomer Dave. There was cliff jumping, rope swing, rock wall, zip line, water slide, climbing the Iceberg, the Rock-It, and lauching each other off the Blob. All in all, it was a wonderful time had by all.
