For hundreds of years, Benedict Arnold's name has been a synonym for "traitor." But he was an ardent fighter for the American Cause from the war's beginning, often enduring hardships and putting his life on the line in the fight against Britain. The year 1777 was a particularly difficult one for the American general; while he fought the British to secure American independence, he also battled Congress over promotions due - but denied- to him. This program delves into how 1777 broke Arnold's "Zeal and Cause" for the United States and placed him on the dark path he ultimately took to committing treason against his beloved country.

July 19, 2025Registration required: Adirondack Center for Loon Conservation
Do you love watching loons? Help us gather valuable data about New York’s loon population by participating in the NY Annual Loon Census as a community scientist!
The NY Annual Loon Census is held on the 3rd Saturday of July each year for one hour. During the census, volunteers across the state of New York observe loons on their assigned lake and report their observations to ACLC. This data provides an annual "snapshot" of the breeding loon population in the state. Results of the census over time provide valuable information regarding the status and trends in New York's summer loon population.
The census started in 2001, and has been held annually since. We thank the former Wildlife Conservation Society’s Adirondack Program for their collaboration in coordinating the NY Loon Census from 2010-2018.
People all across the state are invited to participate in the Annual Loon Census and submit their observations from any lake in New York.

You’re invited to join us online with award-winning author Rex Ogle as he talks to viewers about his struggles to navigate sixth grade as written about in his book Free Lunch.
Instead of giving him lunch money, Rex’s mom has signed him up for free meals. As a poor kid in a wealthy school district, better-off kids crowd impatiently behind him as he tries to explain to the cashier that he’s on the free meal program. The lunch lady is hard of hearing, so Rex has to shout.
Free Lunch is the story of Rex’s efforts to navigate his first semester of sixth grade—who to sit with, not being able to join the football team, Halloween in a handmade costume, classmates and a teacher who take one look at him and decide he’s trouble—all while wearing secondhand clothes and being hungry. His mom and her boyfriend are out of work, and life at home is punctuated by outbursts of violence. Halfway through the semester, his family is evicted and ends up in government-subsidized housing in view of the school. Rex lingers at the end of last period every day until the buses have left, so no one will see where he lives.
Unsparing and realistic, Free Lunch is a story of hardship threaded with hope and moments of grace. Rex’s voice is compelling and authentic, and Free Lunch is a true, timely, and essential work that illuminates the lived experience of poverty in America. Register now to join the conversation!
Registration is required and a high speed internet connection is recommended. Register for this author talk and check out other online author talks here: https://libraryc.org/crandalllibrary Programs will be recorded and available to view at a later date.

Presented by Dr. William S. Brown
Harmless or Venomous? Requested by one of our LGLC’s supporter, come view photos and learn from the prestigious Dr. William S. Brown about what snakes can be found in “our neck of the woods”!
After this presentation, you will have confidence in the recognition of the types of snakes that are in our area, especially which ones are harmless, which will ultimately lead to an enhanced outdoor experience for all nature enthusiasts!
Dr. Brown, with skill honed by four decades of experience, will discuss the identification of our native snakes in northeastern New York using numerous photographs of their characteristics. Ways to distinguish venomous snakes from harmless snakes will be reviewed. Among our larger species of harmless snakes, several are occasionally mistaken for a rattlesnake, including Eastern Milk Snakes, Northern Water Snakes, Black Rat Snakes, and Eastern Hog-nosed Snakes. The smaller harmless species include Eastern Garter Snakes, Northern Brown Snakes, Northern Red-bellied Snakes, Eastern Ring-necked Snakes, and Smooth Green Snakes.
Virtual option available.

Michale Glennon, Ph.D. - Senior Research Scientist
New York State’s Adirondack Park is a large, intact breeding ground for numerous migratory bird species, several of which are declining throughout their range. A unique component of the Adirondack avifauna is the birds inhabiting the boreal peatlands of the park. Climate change is now widely recognized as the pre-eminent threat to biodiversity in the 21st Century. At the southern range extent for this ecosystem type and many of its avian inhabitants, the park is a valuable location from which to monitor changes in bird populations from a warming climate. Findings from long-term monitoring of boreal birds in the Adirondacks suggest that bird responses to climate change may be mediated by land use patterns, highlight the importance of a patchy habitat distribution, and raise important implications for potential conservation strategies in these habitats.

Many people think hunger will always exist in America. But just because we don't have the answer to this challenge on a national stage, doesn't mean we can't solve it here at home in the Adirondacks. What would be possible if we restructured our safety nets to support rather than circumvent our local farmers and producers? AdkAction and our partner organizations have been reimagining the future of our food systems by connecting our neighbors in need directly with local farms. This lecture explores how these programs impact the lives of real Adirondackers on both sides of the food system and how this model could support small-scale agriculture as a growth industry in our region.
