CT State Bioblitz Updates

The Blitz is just around the corner and we are reaching our capacity for registered scientists/naturalists (over 175!). So, our online registration is now closed and we're handling new sign ups case by case. We still welcome iNaturalist observations from everyone though - there is no limit on that. So, if you're in the East Hartford area on June 3rd and 4th, please do go out and iNaturalist your heart out.

Further, if you're new to iNat and are looking to get more proficient, come by the Two Rivers Magnet Middle School at 11am on Saturday June 4th - @kueda will be leading a workshop/grassroots bioblitz then.

On Saturday there will be a full public program, so please come by, bring your family and friends and enjoy the event. It's all free and you can even get a 1/2 priced family ticket to the CT Science Museum.

Better yet, if you'd like to help out as a volunteer at the event, we absolutely need you! Please contact @karolina or karolina.fucikova[at]gmail.com to sign up. There will be plenty jobs to do - helping man exhibits, run workshops, work with scientists on sorting and identifying specimens and logging them into iNat, and more.

Hope to see you soon!
