Upcoming Events - Saturday, October 14

Now that the rain has subsided, it is time to get outside and enjoy some of our open spaces! 

For the history buffs out there, celebrate Archeology at the Franklin State Forest with DCR, Franklin Historical Commission, and Franklin Museum. Travel back in time to the 1930s and visit the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) historic campsite - right in the State Forest! Uncover the hidden truths of our land, meet a state archaeologist, and immerse yourself in nature.

For those with children or those that just really like big engines, come to the DPW Touch a Truck event and sit in Conservation's newest equipment - the "Conservation Flotation", our 10-foot boat to help mitigate beaver dams, clear stormwater infrastructure, and other odd jobs. While you're there, come visit our Conservation table for some fun handouts, demonstrations, and trail maps.

Both events are scheduled for Saturday, October 14 from 10a-2p. Can't choose which one to attend? Go to both!
