Rindge Conservation Offers FATHER’S dAY HIKE
TO KICK-OFF POLLINATOR WEEK
Rindge, NH (June 7, 2021) - The Rindge Conservation Commission invites the public to celebrate Father’s Day on Sunday, June 20th at 1:30 p.m. by exploring the outdoors at Contoocook Marsh Conservation Complex. The family-friendly 1-hour hike will discuss pollinators and why they are important to kick-off Pollinator Week, June 21-27. You need not be a father to join in the fun. The hike is open to everyone.
The walk will follow a well-defined path with views of the marsh, open water and shady groves. It begins from the parking area on County Road (east off US 202 about 1.5 miles north of Route 119). When participating in outdoor activities, please protect yourself with sun screen and bug spray, and bring a bottle of water.
The Father’s Day hike is part of Rindge Conservation Commission’s Annual Hike and Paddle Series that highlights the beautiful trails, forests, and wetlands in Rindge. Each outing is led by an experienced Conservation Commission member with specific knowledge of the history and unique natural features present on the conservation land.
The next three hikes in the series are July 18th at Tetreault Park, August 22nd at Converse Meadow (includes a paddle tour), and September 19th at Miriam Hunt Memorial Town Forest. All of the events are free of charge and held rain or shine.
The Rindge Conservation Commission actively monitors and protects wetlands, lakeshores, watersheds and other natural resources within the Town of Rindge. Hikes, work days and educational events are held regularly to involve and educate the public about conservation areas and benefits of preserving land for the future.
