A former Ramapo College Student, Peter Urban, will meet us at this location at 9:15. He will ferry over with us to give us a guided tour of Ellis Island. The ferry ticket* provides the ferry ride to Ellis Island as well as the ferry and entry to the base of the Statue of Liberty. Peter will remain with us the entire day. There is lots to see at both sites.
You must get your ferry tickets* in advance at  https://statuecitycruises.com/tickets

 

Purchase your discounted senior ticket for the 12 Noon sail for the New Jersey Pedestal Reserve! Please do this **ASAP** before tickets sell out!!

 
We will have lunch together on our own at some point during the day; both sites have food options. Details for lunch are still being worked out.
It will be a long day and we probably won’t leave the Statue of Liberty before 2:30 or 3 p.m.
