BIO BLITZ

Join us on Saturday May 18 at Sycamore Park to take part on Bristol’s First Bio Blitz! 10am-2pm

Are your kids curious about all of the many different plants and animals that they find while exploring outside? Have you ever been curious about the amount of biodiversity in your community? Would your children benefit from a hands-on species identification project?
A bio blitz is a community event designed to quickly compile information on biodiversity in a relatively small area. Community members of all ages participate in the events alongside trained naturalists and scientists to find and identify as many species of plants and animals as possible.

A bio blitz can offer a unique hands-on learning experience that will make you more aware of the amount of biodiversity in your neighborhood and will teach how to identify new species.

This event is lead by: Mo Bissionette.

Please contact the Recreation office if you plan to attend so that we will have the
proper amount of equipment.
