SUMMARY:Invasive Species & Citizen Science Workshop for Teachers
DESCRIPTION:AUDIENCE: School Teachers only (curricula is geared towards middle school but can be tailored)\nContinuing Teacher and Leader Education Professional Development Credits are available for this workshop. Educators outside of Indian River Central will need to register for these credits as a conference request through MLP. Please bring your own bagged dinner/beverages if desired\nFACILITATOR:\nThe Department of Environmental Conservation\, the St. Lawrence Eastern Lake Ontario Partnership for Regional Invasive Species Management and iMapInvasives.org\nLOCATION: Room 144 @ Indian River Middle School32735\, County Rd 29\, Philadelphia\, NY 13673\nCOST: free\nContact: Megan.pistolese@tnc.org 315 387 3600 x7724\nREGISTRATION ONLINE:\nhttps://forms.gle/w2WYi7MuoHa2dex5A \nEvent Flier \nInvasive species are non-native plants\, animals\, insects and diseases that threaten our environment\, health and economy. Advantages such as a lack of population controls (i.e.\, predators\, diseases) and faster growth rates allow invasive species to out-compete our native populations for resources\, disrupting food webs and even endangering some species. It is crucial that students have a basic understanding of invasive species and what they can do to help stop the spread. By instilling this knowledge at an early age\, we can help mold them into becoming good stewards of the environment. \nThe workshop will include the following:\n•Introduction to invasive species\n•How to use iMapInvasives\, an invasive species database\, and student-friendly app\, in the classroom\n•Review of a 2-week unit on invasive species\n•Distribution of invasive species & iMapInvasives user guides & information about other invasive species\neducation resources available through Save the River & the Great Lakes Ecosystem Education Exchange.

SUMMARY:Spotted Lanternfly Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Attention all Maple Producers and Foresters & Growers of Hops\, Vineyards\, Tree Fruits & Nut Trees\nSpotted Lanternfly is an invasive species posing a new threat to NY’s forests\, as well as our agricultural & tourist industries  \n  \nSpotted Lanternfly (SLF)\, Lycorma delicatula\, is an invasive insect native to China\, India\, Vietnam. SLF was first discovered in Pennsylvania in 2014 and have since been detected in New Jersey\, Delaware\, Virginia\, Maryland\, Massachusetts\, and Connecticut (here’s an updated list). In New York\, dead insects have been detected in Delaware\, Albany\, Monroe\, Yates\, Suffolk\, Kings\, New York\, Chemung\, and Westchester counties. Following the reports\, DEC and Department of Agriculture and Markets (DAM) staff immediately began extensive surveys throughout the area. At this time\, no additional insects have been found. \nSLF has a high spread potential. Therefore\, early detection of this invasive crop and forest pest vital. \nSLF  pose a serious threat to agricultural crops especially\, hops\, vineyards\, tree fruits\, nut trees\, and maples.  SLF also reduce the quality of life for people living in heavily infested areas as the insect excretes a thick honeydew that makes outdoor recreation extremely unpleasant. \nThe St. Lawrence Eastern Lake Ontario Partnership for Regional Invasive Species Management (SLELO PRISM)  & the St. Lawrence Cornell Cooperative Extension are hosting a workshop to inform the public about the threats SLF pose to our region. Growers of hops\, vineyards\, tree fruits\, nut trees\, and maples are strongly encouraged to attend. The workshop will be held on Wednesday\, March 13th from 1-4pm at the Constantia Town Hall Located at 14 Frederick Street Constantia NY. The workshop is free and open to the public. To attend please register online by visiting www.sleloinvasives.org and clicking on the events page\, Or contact megan.pistolese@tnc.org 315 387 3600 x7724. \nYou Can Help by Keeping an Eye Out For SLF \n\nSigns of an SLF infestation include:\nSap oozing or weeping from tiny open wounds on tree trunks\, which appears wet and may give off fermented odors.\nOne-inch-long egg masses that are brownish-gray\, waxy and mud-like when new. Old egg masses are brown and scaly.\nMassive honeydew build-up under plants\, sometimes with black sooty mold.\nReport any sightings to the DEC at  spottedlanternfly@dec.ny.gov\n\n Join us and Learn How to Help:\n\nLearn how SLF may impact your crops\nLearn to recognize SLF infestations\nLearn how to Report Observations Using the iMapInvasives Mobile App\nLearn of Volunteer Opportunities\n\nClick Here To Register. or Contact Megan.pistolese@tnc.org 315 387 3600 x7724 \n workshop flyer

SUMMARY:Hemlock Woolly Adelgid Workshop & Survey
DESCRIPTION:Volunteers take a closer look at hemlock twigs to search for signs of hemlock woolly adelgid. \nHelp Protect Whetstone Gulf State Park\nAn invasive insect called Hemlock Woolly Adelgid (HWA) kills hemlock trees. \nHemlocks are a key tree species and loss of hemlock populations would dramatically reduce the overall health of our forests and urban green spaces. \nHWA currently isn’t known to be in the Eastern Lake Ontario/St. lawrence River region. \nYou can help us track the spread and absence of this invasive forest pest. \nYou Can Help Protect Whetstone Gulf State Park From HWA! \nJoin us and Learn About:\nOverview of Hemlock Woolly Adelgid & other invasive forest pests \nHemlock Tree Identification & Ecology \nHWA Early Detection Survey Techniques \nHow to Report Observations Using the iMapInvasives Mobile App \nCitizen Science/Volunteer Opportunities \n  \n\n\n\n \nDate: Friday\, February 15th\, 2019 \n(inclement weather date 2/22/19 \nTime: 10:30am-2pm \n Location: Whetstone Gulf State Park Beach House \nAddress of park: 6065 W Rd\, Lowville\, NY 13367 \nMeet at the Whetstone Gulf State Park Beach House inside the Park by the pond.

SUMMARY:Survey for Hemlock Woolly Adelgid Biocontrol Establishment
DESCRIPTION:Help the NYS Hemlock Initiative\n \nSurvey for HWA Biocontrol Establishment at High Tor WMA. The New York State Hemlock Initiative is seeking volunteers to assist with a survey for biological control establishment at the High Tor Wildlife Management Area on Friday\, November 9th at 11:00 am.  \nLaricobius nigrinus (aka “Little Larry”) was released at High Tor as a predatory insect to help control the Hemlock Woolly Adelgid population that has been found in the area. This survey will help researchers gauge the success of the release and establishment of the predatory beetle. The survey will be led by Nick Dietschler\, Research Technician with the NYS Hemlock Initiative. Nick will train volunteers on the survey method\, provide background on the biocontrols\, and will be available to answer questions. \nMeet at the Parish Glen / Conklin Gully parking on Route 245 at 11:00 am. As a warning  – the start of the hike is fairly steep. \nYou can read more about the Hemlock Initiative’s biocontrol program here: \nhttps://blogs.cornell.edu/nyshemlockinitiative/biocontrol-program/ \nBiocontrol Survey at High Tor WMA  \nWhen: Friday\, November 9th at 11:00 am \nWhere:Meet at the Parish Glen/Conklin Gully parking on Route 245 in Naples\nMap provided here: https://goo.gl/maps/Q2Ssns5Qyxz \nRSVP:  Lindsay McMillan at lindsaym@canandaigualakeassoc.org
