Only 2 more days until the Great Marsh Mud Mosey which we are so proud to be sponsoring for the second year.
The Great Marsh Institute is near and dear to us. Our patient coordinator, Valerie, is a licensed falconer and GMI hosts her and her hawk all season long. Our other patient coordinator, Taylor, had her wedding reception there last year!
The Great Marsh is a private property, but in addition to sharing it with researchers, students, birding associations and more- these public events allow our community to engage with this beautifully preserved marshland ecosystem. They will be offering farm-to-table pulled pork with pork raised onsite to participants after the run. There will also be a DJ, demonstrations by the search and rescue dogs, and talks about the marsh’s flora and fauna by biologists! 🌱 🐢 If you stop by to check it out, be sure to cheer Valerie on as she will be running in this year’s race.
This run benefits ChesCo Search Dogs, a a non-profit volunteer organization founded in 2014 dedicated to providing search and rescue resources to emergency service agencies as well as state and national agencies in an effort to locate lost and missing persons.
The race is presented in part by the venue , a non-profit organization dedicated to conservation. It is the purpose of the Great Marsh Institute to support scientific studies through access to the property, technical support, and opportunities for educational activities including funding for student interns. They offer many events throughout the year encouraging arts, conservation, and community.
