Do you enjoy recreation, ice fishing, boating, bird and wildlife viewing on the beautiful Bristol Pond (Winona Lake) ?
Your help is needed!!
Join Lewis Creek Association and the Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation to help remove aquatic invasive species (brittle naiad and European frogbit) from Bristol Pond, an ecologically sensitive area. We will be meeting at Bristol Pond on Monday, July 25th, 2-6 PM to receive training and remove as many invasives as we can. Rain date is Friday, July 29th, 2-6 PM. Please come prepared with shoes you can get muddy, sunscreen and hat, and swimsuit and snorkel gear (if you have it and are willing to get wet to remove brittle naiad)! Be aware that there are some leeches present, so if you plan to swim and snorkel, you may want to consider wearing long clothes you can get wet, and a change of clothes for afterwards. If you're not ready to get wet, you'll have an opportunity to kayak to remove frogbit. (No need to bring your own boat.) Get more info about Vermont Invasive Patrollers and aquatic plant species at https://dec.vermont.gov/watershed/lakes-ponds/aquatic-invasives/monitoring/vips.

Please sign up for this event at https://forms.gle/G2Gj1b54vReQMWcX8 so we can get in touch with you in case of a weather cancellation.
