EVENT: Friends of the Western North Carolina Nature Center

DATE:  February 9, 2021

SUBJECT: Friends of the Western North Carolina Nature Center -Discover who we are, What we are proud to do, and Meet several of the animals who help us teach!  We learned about how the Western North Carolina Nature Center connects people with the animals and plants of the Southern Appalachian Mountain Region by inspiring appreciation, nurturing understanding, and advancing conservation of the region’s rich biodiversity.

The Blue Ridge Naturalist Network is pleased to announce an upcoming Zoom presentation on Tuesday, September 29, 2020 at 5:30 P.M., entitled The Architecture of the Appalachian Trail (AT).  Our speaker will be Sarah Jones Decker who will discuss the structures along America’s most famous footpath and talk about her new book “The Appalachian Trail: Backcountry Shelters, Lean-tos, and Huts”.  For the first time, she documented all of the structures in one place and will explore their differences in design, materials, location, and delve into some of their history.
