NH LAKES offers two more webinars in August

CONCORD — Join NH LAKES for two webinars in August as part of the “Explore Lakes with NH LAKES” webinar series.

Tune in on Wednesday, Aug. 4, for “What Plants are Growing in the Lake?” presented by Amy Smagula, Exotic Species Program Coordinator with the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services. Summer is in full swing and the plants in our lakes are reaching the height of their growing season. While most plants are good for our lakes, some are not and can cause big problems. Attend this session and learn how to identify what plants are growing in your favorite lake and what to do if you think you’ve spotted a problem plant.

Then, tune in on Wednesday, Aug. 18, for “Cyanobacteria Update: What we’ve seen & what to be on the lookout for” presented by Amanda Murby McQuaid, Ph.D., harmful algal and cyanobacteria bloom program coordinator with the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services. Tune in for an update on the status of toxic cyanobacteria blooms in New Hampshire’s lakes this summer and find out what to be on the lookout for this fall.

These webinars are part of the “Explore Lakes with NH LAKES” webinar series sponsored by Grappone Automotive Group. These webinars are FREE, but pre-registration is required, and space is limited. Visit nhlakes.org/explore-lakes-webinars to learn more and sign up.
