Join us on Tuesday, June 14th from 6:00 to 7:00 PM for a paddling trip to visit with and learn about loons on Kolelemook Lake. In a small group setting, we will observe and interpret loon behaviors and vocalizations, learn the fascinating history of the loons on the lake, and discuss the conservation concerns that have affected them and the management work being done to help them successfully reproduce each year. In order to maintain the small group setting, the trip will be limited to 10 participants. We will be following best practices for ethically observing wildlife, including keeping a safe distance from the loons, so be sure to bring your binoculars! To reserve your spot, please email Caroline Hughes at chughes@loon.org.

- Canoe or kayak and paddles. We will meet and launch from the public boat ramp .
- PFD (life jacket) for each person. Participants are required to wear a PFD while on the water during this trip.
