Join us at the Chicopee Public Library for the finale in a series of presentations from UMass Ph.D candidates. Alexa Hershberger, a PhD candidate in Allison Roy's lab in Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, will be presenting on the Effects of Dams and Dam Removal on freshwater mussels. More details to come.

The presentation will start around 7:15 p.m. following brief remarks and updates from the chapter. These meetings are free and open to all whether you're a member or not! - Feel free to bring friends, colleagues, and family members.

The events are a great opportunity to meet fellow anglers and conservationists, as well as learn a thing or two about local fishing opportunities and exciting projects we're working on!
