SUMMARY:Wildlife Wonder: The Ins and Outs of Nature Photography
DESCRIPTION:Chatham Community Library\, in partnership with Friends of the Lower Haw\, will host Wildlife Wonder: The Ins and Outs of Nature Photography on Sat\, Jul 26\, 10am-11am in the Holmes Family Meeting Room. This program is free and open to the public. \nPhotographs have a unique ability to tell a story\, kindle emotions\, raise awareness\, and even inspire action. Experience the profound impact of nature photography both through observation of others’ work and by practicing nature photography yourself. Beyond creative expression\, photography has the power to draw people together. \nBates Whitaker\, Creative Content Manager at the North Carolina Wildlife Federation\, will discuss the importance of nature photography\, provide guidance on getting started\, and highlight strategies to avoid the pitfalls of unethical wildlife photography practices. Nature photography possesses the potential for a significant positive impact\, but unethical practices can also result in harm. Being well-informed about the wildlife and habitat you interact with is crucial\, as it directly affects their well-being. \nTopics covered include: \n\nEthics in Nature Photography.\nComposition techniques and practices.\nTips for sharing your work responsibly.\n\nThis program is part of the Lower Haw Presents lecture series hosted by Friends of Lower Haw River and is co-sponsored by the North Carolina Wildlife Federation and the NCWF Tri-County Conservationists Chapter.

Participants will learn about planting techniques and timing\, best varieties\, common problems\, and harvesting methods for broccoli\, cabbage\, carrots\, kale\, lettuce\, onions\, peas\, potatoes\, and asparagus. Participants will also get a tour of the demonstration garden. \nVegetable crops are classified as either ‘warm-season’ or ‘cool-season’ according to their optimum planting time. Cool-season crops are generally planted in early fall to early spring because they do not tolerate the heat stress of the summer. However\, cool-season crops vary in the specific horticultural practices needed for optimum production. \nClasses occur Thu\, Aug 14\, 9:30am-11:30am in the Cooperative Extension wing of the Chatham County Agriculture & Conference Center. Free parking is available at the venue. \nSee more events at CCACC.

SUMMARY:Paddle Under the Stars with the Morehead Planetarium
DESCRIPTION:Join Frog Hollow Outdoors for Paddle Under the Stars with the Morehead Planetarium. Learn about the night sky on these exceptional evenings. Participants will enjoy a delightful mix of science and mythology about the night sky while relaxing in canoes or kayaks on the water. It’s like an IMAX Planetarium\, but in real life at Jordan Lake State Recreation Area! \nSCHEDULE \n\nFri\, May 16\, 8:15-11:15pm.\nFri\, Jun 6\, 8:30pm-11:30pm.\nSat\, Jul 12\, 8:30pm-11:30pm.\nSat\, Aug 16\, 8pm-11pm.\nFri\, Sep 26\, 7pm-10pm.\nSat\, Oct 18\, 6:30pm-9:30pm.\n\nPricing can be found on the website. Trips take off from the Farrington Point Boat Ramp. \nKNOW BEFORE YOU GO \n\nAll guests will be provided with a kayak\, a personal flotation device (life vest)\, and a paddle. The recommended packing list can be found here. Guests will need to provide their own lunches. \nAdvanced online registration is required. Trips may be cancelled if the minimum group size of 4 is not met. Please note that environmental factors may impact the planned curriculum for the day. Gratuity for guides/instructors is always appreciated. \nEstimating the time spent on water for river trips can be a challenging task. Numerous variables can affect the duration of a trip. A few considerations for this are water level and flow\, group experience\, managing a capsized canoe or kayak\, and other relevant factors. Guests may be asked to assist with the shuttle. Shorter distance trips can take 3–5 hours\, longer distance trips can take 4–7 hours.\nParticipants during winter months must wear cold-weather paddling gear appropriate for the air and water temperatures. Frog Hollow may be able to provide cold-weather paddle clothing to those who request it.
