Squam Lakes News

Conservation Journal: John: As part of my AmeriCorps service here, I have analyzed trail parameters which are used to improve management of SLA trail resources. As a result of this, I generated and had access to trail data which, in my free time, I used to identify trails whose grade and features would lend themselves well to a vigorous morning ski.
Conservation Journal: Kim: During hikes on trail work days, walks on the ice to do water quality, education programs, and even truck rides to and from various locations around Squam Lake, there is always time for us LRCC members to connect with each other, volunteers, and community members.
Conservation Journal: Stevie: "Eventually, the holidays pass and the New Year arrives. Soon we’ll be strapping ourselves back in and preparing for the upcoming opportunities that await us. In the meantime, we’re going to continue enjoying what winter has to offer. Ice water quality trips, Winterfest,..."
LRCC AmeriCorp Members Attend National Day of Service in Manchester : Read about our AmeriCorps member's experience at the National Day of Service event in Manchester to honor Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Conservation Journal: Amanda: The real reason why we were on Little Squam Lake that day was not to question the existence of a snowman, but to be trained on how to take water quality measurements under the ice.
2019 Winter Water Quality Monitoring is now under way!: The SLA seeks volunteers to monitor the Squam Lakes in the winter time.
Conservation Journal: Alex: She hands the binoculars to me and as I raise them my eyes are met with a spectacular sight. Standing proudly out on the ice is a bald eagle. As I peer out at this majestic creature, everything around me stops. There are no sounds. No one else is in the room. It is just the eagle and I.
