Education Night (Shore Photo Shoot & Dinner) @ Scituate Shore
Sep 29 @ 7:00 pm – Sep 30 @ 12:00 am

Tonight’s topic:  Shore Photo Shoot & Dinner

We’re pleased to announce a special event to kick off the fall season at NELP.  Join Scituate-based member Brad Orner for an afternoon coastal photo shoot at some of his favorite locations, followed by dinner at a local restaurant.

We’re meeting at 3:00 pm at the Scituate Lighthouse (Lighthouse Road, Scituate).  We can photograph the lighthouse from various angles, and there are plenty of great shore views from the nearby jetties.  For those that are interested, there are also great views of the lighthouse at various points around Scituate harbor, such as Crow Point.

At approximately 4:30 pm, we’ll move on to Conservation Park (250 Driftway, Scituate) to photograph the piers and salt marsh.  Feel free to spend more or less time at each location, as you wish, or to stop by other nearby points (e.g. Peggotty Beach) if you wish.

We’ll then get together at 6:00 pm at the Mill Wharf restaurant (23 Mill Wharf Plaza, Scituate) for dinner and to chat about highlights of the day.

We’ve scheduled this to be after the peak tourist season so it should be a little less crowded, but the weather should still be decent.  We plan to meet, rain or shine. (There are interesting views during stormy weather!)

If you’re planning to attend, please send a quick note to Brad (Bradley [dot] Orner [at] comcast [dot] net), so we have an approximate count for dinner.  You can also follow up with Brad if you have any questions.
