Discussion of Rogers' Future Saturday

Mon, Jun 06, 2011

Friends of Rogers will celebrate the 45th birthday of the Rogers Environmental Education Center in Sherburne on Saturday. 

Birthday cake will be served at 10 a.m., followed by a discussion about the future of the center.  Before the celebration, the Friends group will lead a habitat improvement project  at 9 a.m. to help maintain the trails and grounds at the Center.

The Center was closed on December 31 after a reduction in NYS Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) staffing and budgets.  Under an agreement with the DEC, Friends of Rogers will continue to offer educational activities and public programs at the Center.  The property remains open to the public, from dawn to dusk, and the state continues to maintain the buildings, plow and provide security.

This event is open to the public free of admission, but donations to support operations of the Center are appreciated.
