Memorial Day on the East End is an opportunity for all of us to express gratitude and appreciation for the men and women who died while serving our country. It’s also the beginning of what we call
“The Season,” when increasing numbers of people come to enjoy Montauk’s natural wonders.

That’s why CCOM participated in two events this Memorial Day, marching in Montauk’s Memorial Day parade and holding an earlier guided walk on the new trail to Amsterdam Beach. Memorial Day reminds us that preservation and protection doesn’t come easy. One significant way we can continue to honor those who have sacrificed for America the Beautiful is by doing our part in keeping what they fought and died for respectfully maintained and stewarded.

CCOM has an active schedule of expert guided explorations of the environment of Montauk. They reveal features of our natural paradise that will increase your enjoyment and appreciation of what we are privileged to have here now
and, hopefully, into the future.
