    Hello LSC, and residents of Wells & Poultney,

    Saturday, May 3rd is Green Up Vermont Day.

    Green Up Vermont is a state-wide volunteer cleanup day of Vermont's roads and waterways.

    As Green Up Vermont's website says:

    "We know it isn’t your litter but Vermont needs our help to be beautiful!"

    We had a FANTASTIC turnout last year, with volunteers signing up to cover every road around the lake, and additional roads in Wells & Poultney - and we're looking to do it again this year. You can check out a quick recap, and see lots of photos from our volunteers of our 2024 Green UP Vermont Day here.

    Would you like to volunteer for Green Up Vermont Day?

    If so, email us at info@lakestcatherine.org, or contact us on Facebook, and let us know the roads (or sections of roads) you'd like to work on, and we'll add you to our volunteer map (see below). You can also visit the Wells or Poultney Town Halls to pick up bags, and let them know where you'll work.

    Roads highlighted in blue on the map indicate that the road (or section of road) is being covered by a volunteer. We'll do our best to coordinate the efforts so we all know what areas are covered, and which areas need volunteers.

    Also, on Green Up Day, there will be two opportunities for volunteer meet-ups!

    Wells:

    As we did last year, in coordination with the Town of Wells, we will be hosting a brief kickoff to the day at the Wells Lakeside Park on Little Lake at 8 AM that morning. Please stop in to pick up Green Up bags, fuel up on coffee and muffins from the Wells Country Store to get energized for the day, and meet your fellow volunteers, or stop in to see us to talk about the lake! Green Up Bags are available now at the Town Hall, and will be available at the Park.

    Poultney:

    From 11 AM - 1 PM on the Town Office Green, the Town, along with Noble Ace Hardware and the Poultney Rotary Club will be providing hot dogs, snacks & beverages for volunteers. Also, the Village of Poultney will have a truck parked near the Town Office Green for Green Up bag collection. Green Up Bags are available now at the Town Hall, and will also be available on Green Up Day.

    So, let us know if you'd like to participate and where you'll do your clean up, and we'll add your area to the map. We'll keep the map up-to-date here, and on our website Calendar, on the May 3rd Green Up Vermont Day event. You can view that here: 2025 Green Up Vermont Day Event.

    Let's all pitch in to get Lake St. Catherine, and Wells & Poultney ready for a great Summer!

    Thank you!

    On the third Saturday in July of every year, LoonWatch volunteers take to the water to count loons. It’s the single most effective way for Vermont Center for EcoStudies (VCE) to document and track breeding loons across the state. 

    On this day, between 8 AM - 9 AM, we and volunteers around the lake will count the loons they see, and we'll report the findings to VCE.

    More details as we get closer to the date.
