On Wednesday, October 22nd, the Seagull Society, our support group for the Friends of Birch State Park, organized an evening hosted by GALLERYone – A DoubleTree Suites by Hilton as a fundraiser and to introduce Gale Butler, our new executive director. The evening included a cruise on the Intracoastal donated by Sun Dream Yacht with entertainment provided by a string quartet from the Symphony of The Americas. Part of the celebration was the announcement of a $2 million state grant to repair the seawall on the Intracoastal side of Hugh Taylor Birch State Park won with help from Senator Maria Sachs, Senator Eleanor Sobel, and Representative George Moraitis.
