Do you love loons and live near a lake or visit one regularly? Join the NLC and the MN DNR Loon Program Coordinator for an on-water training to prepare you for a summer of watching loons through the Volunteer Loon Watcher Survey. Come to this session for advanced training hours and gain community science volunteer hours through surveying throughout the summer!

This is an in-person workshop taking place on board the loon pontoon, the StewardShip, and departing from the Cross Lake Recreation Area. We'll survey the loons on Cross Lake and learn what it takes to become a Loon Watcher.

Please come to the workshop with a lake in mind that you want to survey. Before the workshop, please also sign up for the Loon Watcher Survey at: www.dnr.state.mn.us/eco/nongame/projects/loon_survey

This workshop is also open to current Loon Watchers looking to refresh their loon survey skills!
