iSpy Invasive Species

Join OCCA and our friends at the Catskill Invasive Species Partnership (CRISP) for our third annual iSPY Invasive Species Paddle down the Susquehanna River.  Learn how to ID common aquatic and riparian invasive plants and how they threaten the Susquehanna Watershed while enjoying an easy paddle down the river. We’ll start at the Crumhorn Fishing Access Site in Maryland, NY, and end at the Portlandville Fishing Access site. This is a calm stretch of river friendly to new and experienced paddlers alike. We’ll see aquatic and terrestrial species alike, including curly leaf pondweed, water chestnut, Japanese knotweed, and more.

Bring water, a snack (or lunch!) and dress to be on the river for 2+ hours. NOTE: Registration for this program is through CRISP. Visit iSPY Invasive Species Paddle — CRISP (catskillinvasives.com) to sign up
