In case you are interested in attending a gathering to find out how you can
help recover the numbers of the Piping Plover, but find the South Shore too
far to travel, here is a chance for you at the northern end of the mainland.

PLEASE JOIN US AT A GATHERING . . .

WHERE:  Mahoney's Beach public parking lot on the left when you come to the
end of the gravel public road down from the highway and the beach is on your
right.

WHEN:  Saturday, May 25, 2002

TIME: 1:30 p.m. -  5:30 p.m. (Lunch provided)

RSVP: Anna McCarron

WE CAN ALL HELP PROTECT PIPING PLOVERS - AN ENDANGERED SPECIES!
Nova Scotians are encouraged to share the beach by giving Piping Plovers
room to raise their chicks. During the breeding season - from
approximately May to August - volunteer guardians spend time at the posted
boundaries to enhance public awareness of the plover's plight, encourage the
public to please keep their pets on leashes and to avoid posted areas, or
simply report a sighting.

ABOUT THE NOVA SCOTIA COASTAL GUARDIAN PROGRAM
The NSCGP is a program of the Nova Scotia Bird Society with financial
support from the World Wildlife Fund and Canadian Wildlife Service of
Environment Canada through the Endangered Species Recovery Fund, and the
Government of Canada's Habitat Stewardship Program for Species at Risk. It
is also supported by the Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources, many
non-government organizations, businesses and individuals.
