2022 Spring/Summer Newsletter

Our spring/summer newsletter is out now. If you haven’t received one, and you would like a hard copy, you can find them at the two Chocorua Lake kiosks at the Grove and Island, or download a digital version below. The spring newsletter includes appreciations of our Stewardship Director, Lynne Flaccus, articles about interesting plants of the Chocorua Lake Basin, updates on ongoing stewardship efforts, the magic of mussels, gratitude for former board member Toby Page, and more. A big thank you to all the contributors—Rick Allmendinger, Dwight Baldwin, Jim Diamond, Maureen Diamond, Lynne Flaccus, Kristina Folcik, Christopher Hadden (images by Charles G. Loring), Juno Lamb, Neely Lanou, Patricia Lavigne via Unsplash, Jean McKinney, Alex Moot, Kit Morgan, Theo Page, Sheldon Perry, Peg Wheeler—and to our wonderful newsletter designer, Vanessa Valdes.
