This Sunday, instead of getting your mom the usual framed picture of yourself for Mother’s Day — why not spend some quality time with her by taking a hike? A city shore hike, that is.

There will be a hike that starts at Coney Island, goes along the boardwalk to Brighton Beach and Manhattan Beach, and to our very own picturesque Sheepshead Bay. This tour is organized by the [Outdoors Club & Shorewalkers](http://www.shorewalkers.org/?ref=bklyner.com) and [Urban Trail Conference, Inc](http://www.urbantrail.org/?ref=bklyner.com).

Here are the official details:

> Brighton Beach & Beyond  
> We’ll walk the boardwalk, savor an exhilarating international community, enjoy a Russian lunch, & then explore Manhattan Beach & areas of Sheepshead Bay (including its Holocaust Memorial) before heading home. MEET: 10:30AM in front of Nathan’s. Bring water & snack. Take the D/F or Q to Coney Island-Stillwell Ave. (exit the front side of the station & you will spot Nathan’s to the right across the street).  
> Leader: Devra Zetlan (917)526-3908\. Rain cancels.
