We had a great time at Gloucester High School last Friday presenting Snakes of New England and the World.  200 or so students, three presentations.  Great job by our fabulous volunteers:  GHS students Marion Healey, Lila Hawks, Marisa Neves and Kate Bevins, who got out of some of their classes so they could participate.  And Becca Toltz, Nichole Stafford and Colleen Anderson.

We had a nice Snakes of New England and the World presentation on Wednesday, at the Manchester Memorial School for the Department of Parks and Recreation.  Thanks to our volunteers: Wendy Antrim, Becca Toltz, Nichole Stafford, Viki and Wilhelmina Rolf Thaemert, Karen and Marisa Neves and Colleen Anderson.

Last Friday we had a nice native critter exhibit for the Cape Ann Trail Stewards Transit to Trails Launch Event, at the Seine Field in East Gloucester.  Beautiful day, nice crowd.  Thanks to Keith Bertone, Ted Tarr and Colleen Anderson.

We had a nice exhibit at Dogtown Days last weekend.  Cool event.  The weather was a little soggy and raw, but there were lots of people there to admire our Dogtown native reptiles and amphibians.  Thanks to Becca Toltz, Keith Bertone, Colleen Anderson, Marisa Neves and Dave and Benjamin McKinnon.

So... last Sunday CAVPT had a nice native Massachusetts snake diplay at the New England Herpetological Society's Mass Reptile Expo in Randolph.  Lots of people were interested in our snakes.  Keith Bertone and I did that one.  We are both members of both organizations.

We had a great time on Saturday at Maritime Gloucester.  Our snakes were a big hit and we were pretty much mobbed all day. Thanks to our courageous volunteers:  Kate, Diane and Jon Bevins, Nick Taormina, Marisa Neves, Colleen Anderson, Marion Healey, Keith Bertone, Wendy Antrim and Abby Cook.  Snakes were relatively well-behaved except for Ludwik who pooped in Marisa's shoe.  Snakes today.

We had a great time at the Gloucester Block Party last Saturday.  Us and our snakes were mobbed the whole time.  Thanks to our fabulous volunteers:  Wendy Antrim, Colleen Anderson, Becca Toltz, Marisa Neves, Ted Tarr and Marion Healey (who showed up as a very convincing Harley Quinn, which was quite popular with our younger visitors.
