Winter FISM Meeting - Join Us!
The Fishers Island Seagrass Management (FISM) Coalition will hold its winter meeting in February!
When: Friday, 16 Feb, 12:00-1:30 pm
Where: Virtual via Zoom – email our project coordinator for the link!
Who: All members of the community are welcome!
The FISM Coalition has big plans for 2024 – we want to be part of the solution, creating innovative paths to facilitate our community’s journey towards a more sustainable and resilient future. The Save Our Seagrass Movement aims to:
build community interest and understanding of eelgrass
provide a path for the community to engage in seagrass-safe actions
foster pride towards our eelgrass meadows through a citizen scientist network. In 2023 we officially launched our movement, and we are just getting started
In October, the Coalition decided to focus on eelgrass mapping, in-water indications of eelgrass meadows for boaters, and improving community participation in our goals. During the February meeting we will discuss how to best implement these plans for the benefit of the community.
This meeting is an excellent opportunity for community members to discover the Coalition’s plans for 2024 and be part of the conversation that will determine our approach to our goals. Please contact our project coordinator, Hannah Vagts, at FishersIslandSeagrass@gmail.com to join us online!
