SUMMARY:Meeting at the Library: Katie Grzesiak
DESCRIPTION:Grand Traverse Humanists present a program on native and invasive plants by Katie Grzesiak\, coordinator of the Northwest Michigan Invasive Species Network. \nThe ISN’s mission is to protect\, enhance\, and promote northwest Michigan’s natural communities through terrestrial invasive plant management and outreach. ISN is essentially a “think tank” of anyone working with terrestrial invasive plants (and some wetland invaders). ISN shares information\, expertise\, and resources among partners. They work to educate the public about invasive species and prevent new invasions through workbees\, presentations\, and Go Beyond Beauty (a program that provides positive recognition to garden professionals and others who exemplify business and landscaping practices that benefit and protect our region’s natural areas). \nKatie is originally from DeWitt\, Michigan (near Lansing)\, but she would rather talk with you about the time she has spent in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. She graduated from Northern Michigan University in 2009 with a Bachelor of Arts in Ecology\, and worked for the National Parks Service at Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore on invasive species management for three summers. \nKatie went on to incorporate this employment into her study for a Master of Science at the University of Michigan’s School of Natural Resources and Environment. During this time\, she worked with the NPS for an additional two summers to complete research for her Master’s thesis: continuing a long-term study on the effects of herbicides on spotted knapweed and native plant communities.

SUMMARY:Humanist Paddle on the Cedar River
DESCRIPTION:Join the Grand Traverse Humanists as we paddle the beautiful Cedar River\, aka Victoria Creek! This is an easy trip appropriate for all skill levels. You can use a kayak or canoe\, but not tubes (they’re too slow). Paddle boards would be acceptable\, but you may not be able to keep up with those with kayaks/canoes. \nThe river has no current\, so this will be an out and back paddle. No shuttle required\, as we’ll paddle out and return the same way. It will be up to participants to decide how far they want to go. If you paddle all the way to Lake Leelanau and back\, it’s a 7.2 mile round trip. Those who make it to Lake Leelanau will be able to take a short side trip to a “secret” lake! \nThis river runs through the Leelanau Conservancy’s Cedar River Preserve. More info here: https://leelanauconservancy.org/naturalarea/cedar-river-natural-area/ \nWe’ll meet at the launch site at 11 AM. The launch is in Cedar in a parking lot off Kasson St. (the main street going through Cedar). On the north side of the river\, turn into the parking lot with the American Waste recycling dumpsters. More info at our Facebook event posting: https://www.facebook.com/events/2340724672808344/ \nEmail Linnaea to RSVP. Hope to see you on the river!
