SUMMARY:Stargazing at Squam
DESCRIPTION:Join us to remove invasive plant species like knotweed and bittersweet from the Cotton Mountain Trailhead. We’ll use handsaws\, loppers\, and lay down barriers to curb the spread of invasives\, which will help native plants reclaim the corridor. Participants will also get to work with a crew of AmeriCorps NCCC members who are currently serving at the SLA to help maintain our trail network. Children must be accompanied by an adult.For more than 75 years\, the trails in the Squam Lakes region have been maintained by the Squam Lakes Association. There are 57 miles of hiking trails and 3 miles of mountain bike trails in the SLA network\, and the SLA performs over 2\,500 hours of trail construction and maintenance each year with help from Volunteer Trail Adopters.\n\n        \n    \n    \n    \n    \n            \n                    \n            \n            \n\n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n    \n        Volunteer with us!\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  \n  \n	\n\n\n\n\nWhat to bring\n\nVolunteers should bring loppers\, hand saws\, eye pro\, and gloves if they have them.
