Three events coming up at Lehigh Gap Nature Center

Longyearbyen Dear Members and Friends of Lehigh Gap Nature Center,

Kotdwāra We have three events coming up at LGNC.

Saturday, July 3 — Incredible Insects, Join us from 9:00 a.m. to noon as we search the refuge for beautiful butterflies and dynamic dragonflies and damselflies. We will visit the ponds and the grasslands as well as the gardens at the Osprey House in search of these insects, learning about their life cycles, ecology, and identification along the way.

Saturday, July 10 — Members’ Picnic. This is a potluck picnic — everyone bring some food to share — for members and guests. The event begins at 5:00 p.m with an open house for the new visitor and education center which is nearly complete. We’ll have dinner around 6:00, and then tour the new habitat gardens and Brandon Everett’s habitat project under the power lines. This will be the first official group in the new building.

Friday, July 16 — Opening Celebration. Beginning at 10:00 a.m we will open the doors of the new building to the public for the first time. At 11:00, there will be a dedication ceremony for our new energy efficient, “green” buildling.

Hope to see you soon at the Gap.

Dan
