All aboard the Floating Classroom to learn about our loons!

Enjoy some time on the water and some time talking about loons with Maine Master Naturalist and Loon Restoration Project Volunteer Susan Cottle. Perhaps we’ll espy (from a safe distance!) or hear the call of one of our loon friends while we are out. But we will certainly talk about their lives, what causes problems for them, and how we can help them as we enjoy being on Great Pond.
Meeting Location
This program will meet at 7 Lakes Alliance, 137 Main Street, Belgrade, ME 04917.
