Prescott Community Center

Groton and its surrounding communities are confronting many challenges concerning the sustainable use of our resources in the face of growing populations and rapid climate change. In this forum, we will look at ways to reduce biodiversity loss, mitigate and adapt to a changing climate, protect water resources for biological and recreational use, and manage our lands for their ecological value. Week 1 - Challenges to the protection of biodiversity Week 2 - The Ecology of Climate Change - uncertainties and probabilities Week 3 - Mitigating Climate Change - can we make a difference? Week 4 - Helping Wildlife Adapt to Climate Change David Black has taught ecology and environmental science at Groton School since 1989. He served as a trustee of the Groton Conservation Trust from 2002 until 2021 and remains active in environmental issues in the community. His primary interests lie in the fields of conservation biology and land use management and planning. **All proceeds benefit the Prescott Community Center.**

Join us to paint silk scarves with alcohol ink! Dana Haigh will teach techniques to make vibrantly patterned scarves using inks and isopropyl alcohol. Everyone will create two scarves of their own to take home. No experience necessary! Class $40 | Material Fee $35 Here is what they are saying about Dana's Class: "This was such an incredible class! The group was creative, mutually supportive, and fun-loving. I leaned skills that, with just a few supplies, I’ll be able to use and build upon. And the instructor, Dana Haigh, was absolutely wonderful! Thank you Prescott for making the class happen!"

Join us at Prescott for an in-person meetup for twenty-somethings with a passion for gaming. In the online space, the ability to socially connect with others is slowly becoming more rare.

Come hang out with other like-minded folks. Pizza, Snacks and Water will be provided for a fun evening of game play. Feel free to bring games you would like to play! Any kind of games are welcome, be it board game, video game, or otherwise. GAME ON! **All proceeds benefit the Prescott Community Center.**
