What an incredible morning celebrating 25 years of impact, restoration, and community at our Creating a Treasure Champagne Brunch.

We were honored to gather with supporters, volunteers, partners, sponsors, and friends who have helped make Teaneck Creek Conservancy's mission possible throughout the years. Together, we reflected on the remarkable transformation of Teaneck Creek, recognized outstanding individuals and organizations, and celebrated the collective efforts that continue to protect, restore, and inspire our community.

This milestone event was a powerful reminder that meaningful change happens when people come together with a shared vision. Thank you to everyone who attended, contributed, volunteered, donated, and helped make this celebration such a success.

As we look ahead, we remain committed to building on the progress of the past 25 years and creating new opportunities for environmental stewardship, education, and community engagement.

Thank you for being part of our journey. Here's to the next 25 years of creating a treasure together. đź’š

A massive thank you to our incredible sponsors for making this milestone event possible:

Explore Teaneck Creek by learning about the birds that reside here and those passing through. Whether you are a total beginner or curious about the songs you hear, our birding enthusiast, Dena Ressler and her Tween friends, will guide you around the park providing a hands-on introduction to the art and science of birding.

If you have a pair of binoculars please bring them along. If not, TCC will have a few on hand to borrow. Learn how to quickly find birds in the trees (it’s harder than it looks!) and identify birds by their songs.

Free. All ages. Light rain or shine. Registrants will be notified by email if the program is canceled. Some trail sections are challenging for strollers. No restrooms available.

Registration recommended.
