Spring Wildflower Walk & Preserve Grand Opening
Sunday, May 21 2017 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM
Jay Stratton, donor of the preserve, Becky Nystrom, CWC co-founder and JCC Biology Professor, and Jonathan Townsend, CWC Conservation Lands Manager, will lead the walk, pointing out the many beautiful wildflowers, ferns, trees and wildlife typically encountered in the region in springtime. The improvements to the Chautauqua Creek Oxbow Forest Preserve were supported with funding from the New York State Conservation Partnership Program (NYSCPP) and New York State's Environmental Protection Fund. The NYSCPPP is administered by the Land Trust Alliance, in coordination with the State Department of Environmental Conservation. Additional support was provided by members of the Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy, the Northern Chautauqua Community Foundation, Holt Associates, NYSDEC Public Fishing Rights Program, Andy Johnson of EcoStrategies, in-kind support from the Town of Chautauqua and many volunteers.
Conditions at the preserve may be wet and/or muddy, so participants are asked to wear waterproof boots and dress for the weather. Long sleeves, long pants, and insect repellent are also recommended. Pre-registration for the event is appreciated but not required. To register email us at [email protected] or call us at 716-664-2166. This event is free for CWC members, with a $5 donation is suggested for non-members.
