Guided Paddle: Massabesic Lake

June 22 @ 10:00 - 14:00 EDT

Have you ever wondered why loon chicks ride on their parents’ backs? What loons are saying with those eerie calls in the night? What threats they face on our lakes, and what work is being done to preserve these beautiful, iconic birds in New Hampshire?

Join us for a paddling trip on Massabesic Lake, led by Loon Preservation Committee staff, to learn the answers to all of these questions and more! In a small group setting, we will visit with and learn about the loons on Massabesic Lake. We will observe and interpret loon behaviors and vocalizations, learn the fascinating history of the loons on the lake, and discuss the management work being done to help them—and all of New Hampshire’s loons—thrive.

While our guided paddles are free of charge and are open to the general public, in order to maintain a small group setting, each trip will be limited to 15 participants, and RSVP is required. This paddle is offered in partnership with the AMC Paddlers of New Hampshire, and registration is required through their website at https://amcnh.org/committees/paddling/#trip-id-150312. If you have any trouble registering for the paddle, please email volunteers@loon.org
