SUMMARY:Volunteer: Trail Work Half Day
DESCRIPTION:Many Indigenous tribes have a ceremony appreciating the moons cycle each full moon. Come join Emma and Miranda on a 2.0 mile hike up West Rattlesnake where we will come together and appreciate its long history with indigenous Americans\, we can set new years goals and do self reflection as this was usually practiced on the first full moon of the year. Whether you are curious about Indigenous culture or not\,  this is the perfect time to settle in to the new year and appreciate the environment around us! \n\n    \n                                    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n            \n                    \n            \n            \n\n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n    \n        Register now\n\n        \n        \n                \n\n    \n\n\n\n\n  \n  \n	\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n	\n\n\nCredit: Dave Govatski/USFWS\n\n\n\n  \n  \n	\n\n\n\n\n  \n  \n	\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n  \n	\n\n\n\n\nLocation\n\nWest Rattlesnake Mountain Trailhead\n\n\n  \n              \n    \n                      \n            \n            \n\n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      West Rattlesnake Mountain Trailhead\, Center Sandwich\, NH 03227\n      \n                  \n\n      \n    \n\n  \n\n\nAbout one third of the Rattlesnakes are located on the Armstrong Natural Area\, owned by the University of New Hampshire.

SUMMARY:Volunteer: Chamberlain Reynolds Trail Work Half Day
DESCRIPTION:Many Indigenous tribes have a ceremony appreciating the moons cycle each full moon. Come join Emma and Miranda on a 2.0 mile hike up West Rattlesnake where we will come together and appreciate its long history with indigenous Americans\, we can set new years goals and do self reflection as this was usually practiced on the first full moon of the year. Whether you are curious about Indigenous culture or not\,  this is the perfect time to settle in to the new year and appreciate the environment around us! \n\n    \n                                    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n            \n                    \n            \n            \n\n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n    \n        Register now\n\n        \n        \n                \n\n    \n\n\n\n\n  \n  \n	\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n	\n\n\nCredit: Dave Govatski/USFWS\n\n\n\n  \n  \n	\n\n\n\n\n  \n  \n	\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n  \n	\n\n\n\n\nLocation\n\nWest Rattlesnake Mountain Trailhead\n\n\n  \n              \n    \n                      \n            \n            \n\n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n      \n      \n        \n      \n      \n      West Rattlesnake Mountain Trailhead\, Center Sandwich\, NH 03227\n      \n                  \n\n      \n    \n\n  \n\n\nAbout one third of the Rattlesnakes are located on the Armstrong Natural Area\, owned by the University of New Hampshire.
