Newfound Nature Station Invites All Animal Detectives! – Grey Rocks Conservation Center, Hebron NH
Join the Newfound Lake Region Association (NLRA) as we explore animal tracks and other sign during Newfound Nature Station, a free program that connects youth and families to the natural world. This event will be held at Grey Rocks Conservation Center at 178 N Shore Road, Hebron, NH on February 24 from 10 am to 12 pm. In winter it can be hard to spot wildlife as we look across the white landscape- some species have left for the winter, some are hibernating, and the rest seem to be hiding from the weather. But snow can hold clues about which animals are in an area and what they’ve been doing! At Nature Station, participants will get an introduction to animal tracks & sign, have a chance to explore the trails looking for those clues, and make a craft to take home. This program is free and open to all.
Newfound Nature Station, along with other family programs and events, is part of NLRA’s year-round work to encourage residents and visitors to enjoy the natural beauty around them, learn more about the environment and how to protect it, and fall in love with the Newfound Watershed. By connecting the people of Newfound to the wonders around them, NLRA works to inspire the next generation of stewards and fulfill the mission of protecting Newfound Lake and its watershed. Along with programs like Newfound Nature Station, NLRA maintains Grey Rocks Conservation Area in all seasons as a place for people and wildlife alike. It offers a new conservation center, walking trails, a picnic area, fishing alcoves, and a non-motorized boat launch and is frequented by wildlife like loons, turtles, and bald eagles as well as people.
