Couples Enjoy "Date Night" at Watchung Stable, May 1

Union County residents pay just $56 per couple.

The Union County Board of Chosen Freeholders is pleased to announce that Watchung Stable and the Mosaico Restaurant are joining together to offer the County’s fifth “Date Night at Watchung Stable” on Sunday, May 1.

“Couples, ages 18 years and older, are invited to go out on a date in a new and exciting way – on horseback!” said Freeholder Daniel P. Sullivan, liaison to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board. “Along the trail through the picturesque Watchung Reservation, you’ll visit Lake Surprise and meander through the woods and fields to discover the variety of wildlife active in the late afternoon.”

Trail ride participants must arrive by 3:45 p.m. to sign in. The ride, approximately one hour in duration, will leave at 4:00 p.m. After the ride, couples may want to head over to the Mosaico Restaurant for a Northern Italian dinner since each couple will receive a $20.00 gift certificate courtesy of Mosaico!
