This past September, the Friends of the Cook Memorial Library asked us to speak at their Annual Meeting and share the history and current activity of CLC with their group. Many thanks to the Friends for this invitation, which provided the impetus to write a short history of the Lake Basin and the CLC.
Thank you to David Kunhardt for his presentation on Big Solutions to Climate Change, and to Cook Library for their partnership on the Climate & Community program series.
Though we admire the topography surrounding Chocorua Lake, we seldom think about the fact that the lake bottom has its own topography, referred to as “bathymetry.” The shape of the land surface, above or below water, tells a story of the natural forces and processes that shaped the earth—how mountains and lakes came to be.
Thank you so much to Athena Contus of Athena's Bees for her wonderful talk about bees and pollinators in a changing climate and things we can do to promote healthy pollinator populations. Athena also shared an abundance of excellent resources with us. Spend some time with these websites and videos and you will learn a lot about how to support the insects and ecosystems that make our lives possible.
