National Moth Week - CNY Activities

 

 National Moth Week is fast approaching and ESF is hosting/helping to lead two moth blacklighting events. We are casting a wide outreach net, as there are many organizations in the CNY area who we think would be interested in attending this event or could serve as resource to help with outreach. Please share the registration links and attached flyers with your networks.
