Summer Fun Fridays 2025
Our PTW Voyage to the "Sunken Forest" of Fire Island was Awesome!
The first day of summer was finally here, and it was the perfect warm and sunny day for our 3rd Fun Friday at Sunken Forest. The excitement began as we waited for the ferry to take us across. During the ride, the breeze played with Cassidy's hair, making it look silly, and everyone was laughing and having a great time. Once we arrived, we split into groups for a scavenger hunt, where we got to explore and take pictures of all the fascinating things we discovered. Each group also read fun and interesting facts about Fire Island, making the experience both educational and exciting. Next, we embarked on a nature walk through the enchanting Sunken Forest. The shaded trails were peaceful and full of natural beauty. Afterward, we strolled along the beach, and some of us dipped our feet into the cool water. We were only allowed to go up to our ankles, but luckily, I brought flip-flops, which made walking along the sandy shore much easier. Once our nature walk was complete, it was time for lunch at Sailors Haven. Along the way, we had an unexpected laugh as we saw Martha taking a shower—completely soaked—which had me cracking up. For lunch, I treated myself to delicious chicken fingers and fries, which hit the spot after a morning full of activities. With full bellies and happy hearts, we waited for the ferry to take us back. Just like that, our first summer adventure came to an end. We wrapped up the day by wishing everyone a Happy Fourth of July and looking forward to our next adventure!

I had a great time at the sunken forest. I saw seagulls after we had lunch together. I had chicken tenders and a strawberry daiquiri. It was delicious . - Kiara

A PTW “Favorite” Fun Friday Adventureland Trip Doesn’t Disappoint!
It was a hot sunny day like prefect day to go to adventureland to go on rides! I went on many rides that I could spend the time away. My favorite ride had to be surfs up, while my favorite ride of the frisbee was closed. The rides were fun as I wished that the rides were longer so I can have much fun. They were still making the wave twitser as I thought it was ready for this spring. After a fun day I got some dip n dots. Next time I would've encouraged Lou to go on the baby rides. - Matthew Tolson
