Spring Programs
New Trails: Inside & Out
Evening Talk — Thursday, May 1st 5pm
Daytime Walk — Thursday, May 8th 4pm
Not all of the work of new trails happens outdoors! Quite a bit of mapping and planning takes place in the office on a computer, using digital and experiential data. Join Land Steward Nate McCullin and learn how WLCT plots a trail–inside our conference room.
In this second part of New Trails: Inside and Out, we’ll walk a portion of a trail built in 2024 and connect the inside work to the land and the trail being built.
What is Conservation Monitoring?
Friday, May 9th 3pm
A requirement of placing a Conservation Restriction on a piece of property is that it must be monitored annually: Who monitors and how do they know what to look for?
Executive Director Ross Moran leads this Member Appreciation Program walk, describing the process of monitoring land that has been conserved through a Conservation Restriction (Easement).
