What is it?
The nonprofit NYC H20 is running a moonlit stroll event with NYC Parks at Ridgewood Reservoir. Here’s a fun fact: April is the first full month of spring and its full moon is commonly known in North America as the Pink Moon. This name comes from the Northeast Algonquins, who named it after the phlox flower (Phlox subulata), which also happens to be one of the first flowers to blossom in spring. Maybe you’ll see some of those.
