Webinar Lecture feat. John Kostrzewa, Writer of the Walking Rhode Island column for The Providence Journal

September 16 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Fall Hikes – Walking Rhode Island

John Kostrzewa has been hiking across the state for years. His talk and slide show will include how he started, where he has hiked and what he has learned. He’ll share his observations about the history, geological features, vegetation and wildlife he has found along the trails. He’ll also explain what makes Rhode Island’s trails unique and outline some of the challenges Rhode Islanders face to maintain the state’s public preserves.

John Kostrzewa worked for forty-two years in the newspaper industry, including the last twenty-nine at The Providence Journal as a business reporter, columnist, business editor, and assistant managing editor. He started his walking column in 2021 and has published a compilation of his hikes into a book, Walking Rhode Island 40 Hikes for Nature and History Lovers with Pictures, GPS Coordinates and Trail Maps.
