Contact Dan and Marilyn Brielmann
to see how you can get involved in the
preservation of your local environment.
Here are a few ideas on staying safe on walks and hikes into Nature.
1. Wear long pants tucked into socks.
2. Wear sturdy hiking shoes that protect
ankles and that are comfortable.
3. Use insect protection and after a hike take a
warm shower and comb hair for ticks.
We wash our hiking clothes in case of ticks.
4. Look but don't touch.......some plants
are poisonous.
5. Wear sun protection like sunblock and a
hat....long sleeves protect arms. Don't
forget to protect the back of your neck from
sunburn.
6. Wear a mask and respect other peoples
space by staying 6 feet apart. Masks can
also protect you from pollen.
7. Be observant and watch your step to avoid
accidents and to enjoy the sights and sounds
of Nature.
8. Avoid walking thru tall grass. Stick to the
trail. Step lightly on the land.
9. Have fun learning more about Nature and
then become active in preserving and
protecting our environment.

"Holbrook's GCC Walk"
On June 4, 2022 Patricia Greely, partnering with GCC, led a walk in the Holbrook Town Forest. The Town Forest is a precious refuge for the residents and they have worked hard fighting to save and preserve it. In this video story, we want to share with you the struggle Holbrook residents have gone through and even in the face of adversity they didn't give up on their preservation goals. These residents want to share with you what we have in our own backyards stressing how important it is to work together so these wonderful woodlands will be here for future generations.
