The Geological Society of Connecticut hosted a summer picnic on September 11 at Rocky Neck State Park in Old Lyme. We met at a cluster of picnic tables in a wooded area next to the bird observation platform near the beach parking lots where. GSC provided refreshments (hamburgers, veggie burgers, hot dogs, corn, watermelon, chips, desserts, and soft drinks) to all who registered.
During the afternoon we held an informal field trip discussing both glacial geologic and shoreline dynamic features and bedrock geologic and quarrying features. These areas are covered in depth in field trip guides from previous trips (NEGSA 2012: DEEP guidebook #9 and GSC 2015: GSC guidebook #6), which we will have on hand to share.
