SUMMARY:Birds on the Water
DESCRIPTION:Today's Program:\n\nIs it possible to fit an entire breathing world inside a simple glass jar? Join the Squam Lakes Association for a hands-on program where we’ll explore the "invisible handshake" that allows plants and microbes to thrive in a self-sustaining ecosystem. We’ll walk around the SLA campus to collect the essential "gears" for our engines—from nutrient-rich soil to the "murky" water that jumpstarts the cycle of life. Back inside\, you will learn the art of layering your biosphere to ensure it can recycle its own air and water for years to come. You will head home with your own miniature "Squam in a Jar" and a new perspective on how our massive watershed protects and sustains itself!Can't make it at 1:00 PM? No problem! While our guided lesson and collection walk run until 3:00 PM\, the biosphere creation station will stay active until 5:00 PM. Stop in before then to jump right into the builing process and take home your own mini ecosystem!\n\n        \n    \n    \n    \n    \n            \n                    \n            \n            \n\n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n    \n        Register Here \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	\n\n\n\n\nWhat to bring:\n\nTo keep you comfortable during our outdoor collection walk\, please wear clothing and footwear that you don’t mind getting a little dirty.

SUMMARY:Who's that Macroinvertebrate?
DESCRIPTION:Today's Program:\n\nIs it possible to fit an entire breathing world inside a simple glass jar? Join the Squam Lakes Association for a hands-on program where we’ll explore the "invisible handshake" that allows plants and microbes to thrive in a self-sustaining ecosystem. We’ll walk around the SLA campus to collect the essential "gears" for our engines—from nutrient-rich soil to the "murky" water that jumpstarts the cycle of life. Back inside\, you will learn the art of layering your biosphere to ensure it can recycle its own air and water for years to come. You will head home with your own miniature "Squam in a Jar" and a new perspective on how our massive watershed protects and sustains itself!Can't make it at 1:00 PM? No problem! While our guided lesson and collection walk run until 3:00 PM\, the biosphere creation station will stay active until 5:00 PM. Stop in before then to jump right into the builing process and take home your own mini ecosystem!\n\n        \n    \n    \n    \n    \n            \n                    \n            \n            \n\n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n    \n        Register Here \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	\n\n\n\n\nWhat to bring:\n\nTo keep you comfortable during our outdoor collection walk\, please wear clothing and footwear that you don’t mind getting a little dirty.
