For those eager to connect with the great outdoors and help Vermont’s wildlife, today brings a special opportunity at a local park where volunteers are needed for the Spiny Softshell Turtle Beach Cleanup.

It’s a celebratory space to find unique gifts and connect face-to-face with the people who make them, with a complimentary drink ticket to get you started.University life is lively today as well. At UVM, students can stop by from one to three at the John Dewey Lounge for the “Get to Know Your CAS Professional Advisor” event.
