Salamander Crossing Brigades volunteer training
As the earth thaws and spring rains drench New Hampshire, thousands of salamanders, frogs, and toads make their way to vernal pools to breed. Many are killed when their journeys take them across busy roads. Each spring, we train volunteers to serve on Salamander Crossing Brigades at amphibian road crossings throughout the Monadnock Region. These heroic volunteers count migrating amphibians, and safely usher the animals across roads during one or more “Big Nights.” To join the ranks, attend either this volunteer training on March 26, from 7 to 9 p.m. in the Putnam Science Center (Room 129). For more information, contact Brett Amy Thelen at thelen@harriscenter.org or (603) 358-2065. Co-sponsored by the Harris Center for Conservation Education and Keene State College.
To request accommodations for a disability, please contact the coordinator at least two weeks prior to the event.
