Poricy Park Conservancy (A Non-Profit Organization)

Birthday Parties

Have a unique and fun-filled party experience: Your group will be given use of our facilities and be guided by two experienced staff members throughout your party.

There is a 90-minute interactive presentation with themed activities. Each child takes home a completed craft project. Plus there's a 30-minute period for cake and gifts.

*Minimum age for attending children is 5 years of age.*

Birthday Theme Parties

Choose from one of the following unique party themes:

Creatures of The Pond

(April through October only - age 7 & up)

A trained naturalist will lead you to Murray Pond where each child will experience netting for pond dwellers. The birthday child will dress up as a "pond creature" - a picture perfect moment.

Create a fish print to bring home!

Fun with Fossils

(April through october only - age 7 & up)

Travel to prehistoric times with a fossil expert. Guests will be guided through their own hands-on expedition of our Cretaceous fossil beds in Poricy Brook.

Decorate a container to bring home your best fossil finds!

Please note: You must provide transportation to the fossil beds from the Nature Center. Wear shoes/boots to wade in the brook. Towel & extra shoes recommended.

We can also work with you to do a combined party at the Nature Center with the entertaining instructors of Snakes N Scales!!

We provide invitations on request (max. 15) and plain white paper goods. The only thing you provide is the food and beverages. We do the rest!

Visit or call the Nature Center at (732) 842-5966 to arrange your date. Parties must be booked a minimum of 3 weeks in advance to insure staff availability.

*Registration forms are also available on this web site under Registration Forms*
