Light refreshments will be served. Looking forward to seeing you on June 9th!

Join us for an exciting and memorable experience for all at the Lake Waramaug State Park Pavilion. Free. All Ages Welcome. Sponsored by the Lake Waramaug Association.

This 1-hour event will feature 5-6 live birds of prey (hawks, owls, and falcons). The birds were all injured in the wild here in CT and have not recovered enough for release. They have been entrusted to Christine’s Critters by the USFWS to enhance their educational programs. The birds can teach us a variety of lessons including how to be better stewards of our local environment through environmental action and how to help prevent some of the common injuries to these raptors that are caused by mankind.

Christine’s Critters is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that rescues and rehabilitates more than 100 injured raptor patients each year in an attempt to heal their injuries for release. Their educational programs fund their wildlife rehabilitation program and allow the purchase of food, medical supplies, and veterinary care for their patients. Please note: Due to federal regulations, the birds cannot be touched by members of the public.

Come out for a fantastic 2.8 mile moderate woodland hike led by a Kent Land Trust guide and a representative from the LWA hiking committee. Saturday, October 7th at 10:00 AM. Register here: bit.ly/registerforhike (Registration is required to communicate weather-related changes).

Learn the fascinating history of this property and its myriad caretakers, see how the Kent Land Trust is working to restore and nurture native habitats. The 2.8 mile long lollypop-shaped loop trail leads downhill to the west for some length, then turns south following the slope contour, to an abandoned apple orchard. It finally turns east, looping back to a junction that returns to the starting place over the same steep terrain. The small unnamed stream flowing downward first feeds Irving Pond, then Bull Mountain Brook, enroute to the Housatonic River several miles away. KLT's Iron Mountain Preserve.

Where to meet? Access to Iron Mountain Preserve is from a small parking lot near the junction of Flat Rock Road and Treasure Hill Roads in South Kent. Parking on Treasure Hill. Entrance to the trail is from the north of the parking area. Click here for the preserve map.

Please wear sturdy footwear, and bring a water bottle and your curiosity.
