NSRWA Walking Club – North River Wildlife Sanctuary in Marshfield
Saturday, November 9, 2024
10:00-11:30am

Join us on November 9th from 10-11:30 at Mass Audubon’s North River Wildlife Sanctuary in Marshfield for a truly special walk with Walking Club Guest Host Doug Lowry. Doug is a lifelong student of nature and is moving into his forty-fifth year as an Outdoor Educator. He has taught for the National Outdoor Leadership School as a Senior Field Instructor, a Master Educator for the Leave No Trace program and is currently the Senior Teacher/Naturalist for the Southeast Region for Mass Audubon and works on many of the organization’s statewide initiatives, certification programs and Trips and Travel.

As past Board Member and past President of the NSRWA, Doug looks forward to an adventure through Mass Audubon’s North River Wildlife Sanctuary with kindred watershed celebrants. Our proposed route will take us down to the North River and through forested loop trails with several stops along the way for observation. We have binoculars to share and will throw in scones to start our adventure. Trails are relatively flat with minimum fancy footwork involved.

The North River Wildlife Sanctuary offers several trails and boardwalks that wind through open fields and oak forest. There is also an observation platform on the North River. The property attracts many different species of animals, such as harbor seals, deer, coyotes, geese, pheasants, red tail hawks, dragonflies, butterflies, and squirrels.

While we love dogs, NSRWA’s walks are dog-free in consideration for all participants. Please leave your pooches at home.
