Cayuga Birders, This school sits on about 90 acres of undeveloped land north of Rte 13 between Etna and Dryden. Carol was at the Lab last week trying to get ideas for how to proceed in trail-building and preservation. See below regarding an event in October at the site.
Could be an exciting new place to find birds in the area...please reach out to Carol if you have interest in visiting the site or other ideas that might be helpful.

Covenant Love Community School is located at 1768 Dryden Road, just outside of Ithaca on State Route 13 near Dryden, NY. As part of the larger event that will include activities such as: bounce house, petting zoo, hay rides, games, a holiday book sale, soup cafe and bake sale, etc. we would also like to offer some kid/family friendly educational programming from resources in our community. This year our school is focusing on studying birds and ecology, as we learn to care for the natural wetland that is located on our property. We are working to develop relationships with the resources right here in our community that can enable us to better understand and conserve this treasure. Would you consider joining us for part or all of the event? What types of educational programming for children related can/do you provide? We are very open to involving you in whatever ways you feel are most appropriate. The contact person for this event is: Ms. Kyle Hamilton Administrative Support & Development Covenant Love Community School 1768 Dryden Road, Freeville, NY 13068 w: 607 347-4413 c: 607 342-8237 Thank you again for your help in spreading the word about this community event.
