SUMMARY:Annual Great Swamp Scavenger Hunt
DESCRIPTION:Calling all would-be explorers\, adventurers\, and buccaneers! The Great Swamp Scavenger Hunt is back for another year of outdoor fun! \nThink you know a thing or two about New Jersey’s Great Swamp? Then it’s time to test your powers of navigation and observation to find out. \nBegin the Scavenger Hunt just after 10 a.m. by checking in at GSWA’s Home Base under the pavilion at the Great Swamp National Wildlife Refuge’s Helen C. Fenske Visitor Center. (The Visitor Center is located just inside the Lee’s Hill Road park entrance at 32 Pleasant Plains Road in Harding Township\, NJ.) \nWe will provide you with a route to travel\, questions to answer\, and a list of treasures to find throughout the 55-square-mile Great Swamp Watershed region. It’s your job to navigate to each treasure site\, seek answers to the questions and riddles provided\, and then return to Home Base with all your spoils. \nRemember to hurry back to 32 Pleasant Plains Road at 3 p.m. because your day of pilfering booty will earn you several chances to win some special prizes at our Scavenger’s Tricky Tray! \nA free cookout waits for all who participate\, so don’t forget your barbecue enthusiasm. We love it when our guests participate in the picnic! Feel free to bring along a covered side dish (to share or not). We’ll supply the burgers\, dogs\, and drinks. \nThis event is sponsored by Investors Bank\, Madison Branch.

SUMMARY:Stream Assessment & Macroinvertebrate Training
DESCRIPTION:If you are interested in becoming a stream monitoring volunteer or just learning more about stream health\, this is the training for you! An indoor classroom session helps you learn how to conduct visual and biological stream assessments\, and recognize environmental factors that may impact stream health. An outdoor session helps you practice your new-found skills\, visually assessing streams and collecting and identifying macroinvertebrates at a local stream site. Afterwards\, you will be a fully trained stream assessment volunteer and ready to conduct a new assessment this fall! This training will be conducted in conjunction with the AmeriCorps New Jersey Watershed Ambassador Program. \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Invasive Plant Identification Workshop
DESCRIPTION:What makes a weed a weed? How can you tell your oriental bittersweet from your Japanese barberry and why should you care that you can? Invasive plants are spreading in our forests and open spaces\, and harm the environment as they reduce biodiversity and resources for native wildlife. New Jersey spends millions in labor and resources to remove invasives each year. Join us for this informative\, hands on session on how to identify New Jersey’s top ten least wanted\, as we learn from the plants themselves to know both terrestrial and aquatic invasive plants and appropriate native replacements. You’ll never look at burning bush in the same way again! Registration required. Register below or by calling 973-538-3500. \nThis program is being run in conjunction with Morris County Park System’s Great Swamp Outdoor Education Center and the Americorps Watershed Ambassador.
