Saving the Mountains: NH & the Creation of the National Forests In 2011, New Hampshire and the nation celebrated the 100th anniversary of the Weeks Act, the law that created the east-ern national forests. New Hampshire’s White Mountains played a leading role in events leading to that act. This and other related programs were held in the area in 2011, but there were many people who did not get the opportunity then to attend, so we offer them a second chance. Marcia Schmidt Blaine of Plymouth State University and the New Hampshire Humanities Council will explore the relationship between our mountains and the individuals who worked to protect them. Time: 7:00 p.m. Location: Eastern Slope Inn No. Conway Bonus: Pizza night at Flatbreads; a portion of the price of each pizza purchased will be donated to the Bartlett Historical Society.

Questions such as where is the best place to put feeders will be answered. Dave will also provide a winter finch forecast and make a prediction on which interesting bird visitors from the far north will come down to our area.
