There will be opportunities to canoe at the MULLER FIELD STATION OPEN HOUSE on Sunday, October 13, 2024
It's been ten years since our previous paddle at Muller Field Station. FLCC Instructor of Environmental Conservation,

plants from canoes! Come dressed for the adventure to begin at 2 PM.
Canoes and life vests are available at Muller. Please let us know if you plan to join us by sending an email to canandaiguabotanical@gmail.com (by September 10) and we'll be sure to reserve a spot for you.
