Squam Lakes News

Adventure Ecology: Species Interactions and the Balance of Nature: Take a stroll around the SLA headquarters to see examples of all the different types of species interactions that occur in nature and learn about how they work in harmony to create a balance.
Intern Journal: Steve: "As I sit on Millie absorbed in my thoughts, I seemed to morph into the surroundings, and the wildlife began to emerge."
Intern Journal: Tamara: "I hope that everyone who attended my Adventure Ecology program was able to walk away with a growing sense of appreciation, and excitement for the plants around them in their lives."
Intern Journal: Riley: "This, I believe, will be one of the biggest takeaways from my work with the Squam Lakes Association: that with proper care and minimal human impact, ecosystems can recover."
Intern Journal: Elizabeth: "And while our knowledge of – and appreciation for – these plants and the physics and engineering behind our eradication tools have increased exponentially over the past month and a half, I find myself discovering and learning far beyond the reaches of what I expected."
Adventure Ecology: Exploration of Aquatic Microbes, the Invisible Zoo Around You: Join SLA Conservation intern, Alice Goldstein-Plesser, and unveil the otherwise invisible and overlooked creatures that surround us. Learn about their fascinating abilities and their important role in the environment.
Intern Journal: Becca: "I sat on that dock and thought about how all of this work is not just so the visitors can enjoy this beautiful land, but I too am able to enjoy it."
