Celebrate KSC Students’ Inventory of Robin Hood Park

From William Fleeger, Environmental Studies: The Environmental Studies department invites you to an open-house celebration of the completion of a natural resource inventory (NRI) for Robin Hood Park from 10:30 a.m. to noon on Tuesday, December 15, in the Atrium Lounge (room 138) of the Student Center.

As a capstone service-learning experience, students in the department’s junior/senior seminar worked tirelessly during the year-long course to inventory and assess the condition of the ecological and social resources relevant to the park. Their professional quality NRI provides valuable new information and important baseline data necessary for the development of a management plan for this popular and centrally located city property. This informal event is an opportunity to view the completed NRI, learn about the student’s experiences, and express our gratitude for the support provided by our partners, the City of Keene Conservation Commission and Parks and Recreation Department. For more information, please contact Renate Gebauer (8-2577) or Bill Fleeger at (8-2989).
