EVENT SCHEDULE AND INFORMATION
NickersonDCR's Nickerson State Park The beautiful DCR's Nickerson State Park again will be the site for Against The Tide Cape Cod. Nowhere in sight are the sand dunes and salt marshes usually associated with Cape Cod. Instead, you are surrounded by woods that slope down to the banks of eight crystal clear fresh water ponds. Yet, if you walk or bicycle through the woods, you will find no rivers or streams feeding the ponds. These are "kettle ponds," among more than 300 formed as glaciers retreated from the Cape over 10,000 years ago. As you enter the park, signs will guide you to Against the Tide. There is ample parking within Nickerson. Your car will either be within close walking distance or we will provide you with easy shuttle service. ** If you are participating in an event that is later in the morning, you do not have to register until 1 hour beforehand.
