Outdoor Enthusiast: Hammonasset Beach State Park
Although I did not go to Hammonasset State Park, the Media Lab Staffers have filled me in on the details of the trip. Staffers interviewed John Hine and Roger Kinderman of the Department of Environmental Protection on the beach. They also ran into Quinnipiac Professor Ann Culver and her painting class at Meig's Point. Professor Culver was kind enough to let the Media Lab Staffers interview her on the fly. She said her class comes to the park on occasion to paint outdoor landscapes. Who knew painting could be considered an outdoors activity? Although Hammonasset is a great park with many attractions, the Media Lab Staff agree they've been on better shoots. It was a hot, muggy day and one of our staff members had an allergic reaction to the mosquito bites she suffered. They weren't particularly happy campers that day. However, they did enjoy the views at Meig's Point and the displays of reptiles and marine wildlife at the Nature Center. Hammonasset State Park is in Madison, CT and attracts over a million and a half people every year. Visitors can enjoy the beach, the states' largest campgrounds, and a Nature Center. -Julia Kwon
