VIP surveyors on Lake Memphremagog in 2016
This 3-hour VIP workshop will include classroom and hands-on identification training, and a half hour break for lunch. An optional site visit to view the invasive aquatic plant, Eurasian watermilfoil in the Retreat Meadows will follow the workshop. You will need your own non-motorized vessel, PFD and paddle for the site visit unless other arrangements are made with Ann Bove. The site visit will be weather permitting.
Interested workshop participants are encouraged to join our statewide network of volunteers who survey for aquatic invasive species in their favorite lake or pond.
You may now register online. Workshops and materials are offered at no cost to participants. Space is limited. For more information, contact Ann Bove at ann.bove@vermont.gov or (802) 490-6120
