Volunteer for the CLC + in a beautiful place + with views of Mount Chocorua behind the Chocorua River + a giant glacial erratic that’s split in two = a good morning.

On Thursday, July 23, from 9-11:30AM, join Chocorua Lake Conservancy Stewardship Director and naturalist Lynne Flaccus for a Stewardship Day at the Charlotte C. Browne Memorial Woods on Washington Hill. Join us for a morning of clearing along the edges of the fields so that when we have it mowed, there is room to get in close. The branches on the trees along the field reach out into the sun of the open spaces, shading the blueberries growing there and making it more of a challenge when it comes time to mow. Your efforts will be appreciated by the person who helps us keep these fields clear! 

We ask that you bring a mask, and your own clippers and/or handsaw. We’ll work far enough apart to allow for social distancing, but close enough to have a conversation when needed. Please be prepared for bugs and ticks just in case. Feel free to come for all or some of the morning. Call ahead at 323-6252, or email lflaccus@chocorualake.org to let us know you will be coming so that we can let you know of any added safety precautions or changes in the schedule

The C.C. Browne Woods is a 67-acre parcel that is bounded by the Chocorua River to the north, with a short dead-end and loop trail. After our task is complete you may want to take a walk and check out the river with its spectacular views of Mount Chocorua and the giant glacial erratic along the trail—one of the more amazing rocks around!
