Dear Trail Friend,
If you are watching the video, and logged on to www.southamptontrails.org, I’m sure that you love hiking,
kayaking and horseback riding on Long Island’s trails and bays. Let me tell you more about Southampton Trails
Preservation Society (STPS).
STPS is a 24 year old organization that advocates for open space within the Town of Southampton, leads
weekly hikes, kayak trips and/or horse back rides and creates and maintains trails. Here are some statistics
from 2010:
 | STPS led 89 hikes with 856 participants | |
| STPS had 7 kayak events with 64 participants | |
| STPS had 6 HOT rides with 22 humans participating |
If you’ve participated with us in the past or hiked or ridden Town of Southampton trails alone, you can thank
We are a group of people who love being outdoors, learning about the local flora and fauna, getting exercise and
just having fun. We hike Saturdays and Sundays, year round. I enjoy hiking in the winter when the weather is
crisp and clear, with the leaves off the trees the vistas are especially beautiful. We also enjoy getting together
for a snack or lunch at a local restaurant after some of our hikes. We tell ourselves that we deserve it since we’
ve just hiked so many miles!
If you enjoy the trails as much as I do, I encourage you to join us on a hike, kayak excursion or ride and become
a member of Southampton Trails Preservation Society. While you can get our event schedule on this website
and in the local papers, members also receive the schedule and the minutes of our meetings emailed or snail
mailed to their homes. But, more importantly, the larger the STPS membership, the greater the voice we have
with local officials to advocate for open space and trails. If you would like to become a member of STPS, click
on the Southampton Trails Preservation Society Membership Form to learn how to join.
I look forward to seeing you soon!
Sincerely,
Glorian Berk, President
Southampton Trails Preservation Society
