Catskill Mountainkeeper will be holding two virtual discussions at noon and 7 pm on Thursday, February 29th, to discuss how they will work to protect and preserve the Catskills through and beyond 2035.
They will be talking about strategies, challenges, and the most inspiring visions for the future with our elected officials, the experts at the Department of Environmental Conservation, and the scientists and professionals on the front lines of invasive species fights.
Both webinars will feature an active Q&A from participants, and both are free.
