SUMMARY:Historic Bethabara Park (Winston-Salem\, NC)
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, June 4\, 2022\, the Triad Chapter of CBS (Carolina Butterfly Society) will hold a butterfly walk at the Historic Bethabara Park Medicinal and Butterfly Gardens. The Bethabara Gardens are beautiful\, historically significant places to explore. When the Moravians settled Bethabara in the early 1750s\, one of the first things they established were the gardens. The Medicinal Garden contained plants that were used to treat stomach aches\, headaches\, and\, most commonly\, intestinal worms\, which were significant ailments to both people and livestock in the 18th century. The Pollinator Garden was not planted by the Moravians\, but this new garden preserves their tradition and values of respecting and understanding of the balance of nature. The entire park encompasses 183 acres of preserved wildlife\, historic buildings and grounds\, walking and birding trails\, and protected wetlands but we will initially be exploring the gardens listed above. Refer to the website below for a map and additional information. \nThe park address is 2147 Bethabara Road\, Winston-Salem\, North Carolina 27106 (or for those who prefer GPS coordinates\, 36.15470\, -80.29618). Please RSVP to Harriet McCarthy at the email address below if you plan to participate.

DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, May 14\, 2022\, the Triad Chapter of CBS (Carolina Butterfly Society) will hold a butterfly walk at Harriet McCarthy’s home butterfly garden in Forsyth County\, which has been certified as a Monarch Waystation.

SUMMARY:Marie Poteat's Property - Guilford County\, NC
DESCRIPTION:The field trip to this private property in Jamestown was originally scheduled for June 1\, 2019. \nJoin us this coming Saturday\, June 22\, at 10:00 am for our CBS Triad Chapter field trip to Marie Poteat’s property in Jamestown\, NC. The address is 1111 Bales Chapel Rd.\, Jamestown\, NC 27282. Pull in through the gate and park in front of the old house. Please arrive early to get parked properly. \nIf you look at the emails you receive on Triad butterfly activities\, you have seen many beautiful photos of butterflies on Marie’s property. This is our opportunity to see some of those butterflies in person. Marie has spent many years restoring native plants on her family property while eliminating invasive species. For those interested in Monarch butterflies\, she has more than 25 species of the milkweed host plants. This hard work has paid off. She probably has more butterfly species visiting and breeding on her property than any other location in Guilford County. \nIn planning for your morning outing in Jamestown\, you should be aware that there are NO restroom facilities available. Be sure to make a “pit stop” somewhere in Jamestown before continuing to the property. Bring your own water to drink\, and dress for summer weather\, including using tick protection. \nMarie would like to have some idea of how many people she should plan to accommodate. Consequently\, please contact her by early Friday evening to let her know that you’re planning to come and for last minute instructions. Keep in mind that this is a large property. If you don’t let her know you’re coming or you arrive late\, the group may be elsewhere on the property when you get there. \nCoordinator: Marie Poteat <marie.poteat@gmail.com> Please contact Marie if you plan to attend.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED - Pilot Mountain State Park - Surry County\, NC
DESCRIPTION:***  CANCELLED  *** \nI’m afraid we picked bad weather for our Saturday outing at Pilot Mountain.  High temperatures are now predicted at 51 degrees\, overcast and showers throughout the day Saturday. \nThere are still plenty of Brown Elfins there\, particularly on the Jomeokee trail. I again found no Henry’s Elfins but did have 18 Browns yesterday (4/18/19).   \nGood luck on evading the upcoming storm! \nGene Schepker \n——————– \nMeet at Parking Lot (at 10 AM) near the bathrooms (as far as one can drive up after entering the park). Pilot Mountain State Park has no entrance fee but does have cool drinking water and clean bathrooms!  Please leave me your email address preferably or phone number if you plan to attend!

SUMMARY:Pilot Mountain State Park
DESCRIPTION:The Triad Chapter of Carolina Butterfly Society will hold a butterfly walk at Pilot Mountain State Park in Surry County.  Meet at the base of the mountain at the drive entrance.  We will check out the butterflies in the meadow in this area.  Be alert for changes in this plan in case we have to change the meeting place due to weekend crowding.  After exploring the meadow\, we will proceed up the mountain to the parking lot at the top near the restrooms. \nContact the field trip coordinator\, Gene Schepker geneschepker@gmail.com\, if you plan to participate. Participants are welcome to come on our walks without contacting the coordinator\, but you may miss us if there are last minute changes in the trip details. Trip coordinators will contact those who register for our field trips with updates on weather issues\, changes in timing or meeting places\, and other details. \nWear sturdy shoes\, bring plenty of water to drink\, and dress for the summer weather. Binoculars\, cameras\, field guides\, insect repellent and sunscreen probably will be useful. Those who wish to have a picnic lunch while on the top should bring their own food and drink because there is no place nearby to get them. \nOur targets are Common Roadside Skipper\, Mourning Cloak\, and Hoary Edge\, as well as other butterflies. \nThis trip is suitable for beginners as well as seasoned butterfliers. However\, since the ground is uneven and there are potential tripping and falling hazards\, it would be best for parents with kids and folks with ambulatory issues to seriously consider the possible dangers. Guests are welcome but no pets\, please.

SUMMARY:Haw River State Park
DESCRIPTION:We will be exploring the new Iron Ore Belt Access section to the west.  Please note\, do NOT go to the Haw River SP conference center in Browns Summit.  Meet at the Iron Ore Belt Access section parking lot near the pit toilet at 6064 N. Church St.\, Greensboro\, NC 27455.  For more information\, visit their website: https://www.ncparks.gov/haw-river-state-park \nAlthough our chapter has been elsewhere in the park in previous years\, we have not gone as a group to the Iron Ore Belt Access section. A few of our members scouted this section back in the winter and noted a power line right-of-way\, some meadows\, and a wetland that look promising for butterflies. We will walk an easy to moderate woodland trail to get to these sites. The trail seemed a bit rocky and had projecting tree roots periodically\, but there wasn’t a large elevation change. \nBring plenty of water to drink and dress for the summer weather. Binoculars\, cameras\, field guides\, insect repellent\, and sunscreen probably will be useful. \nContact the field trip coordinator\, Anne Carlson carlsonanne74@gmail.com or register on the CBS website if you plan to participate. Participants are welcome to come on our walks without contacting the coordinator\, but you may miss us if there are last minute changes in the trip details. Trip coordinators will contact those who register for our field trips with updates on weather issues\, changes in timing or meeting places\, and other details. \nThis will be an interesting butterfly walk because we will be exploring an area new to us. We believe that it’s suitable for beginners as well as seasoned butterfliers. However\, since we aren’t sure about the terrain and distances involved\, it would be best for kids and folks with ambulatory issues to skip this one. Guests are welcome but no pets\, please. \n

SUMMARY:Canceled - Greensboro Arboretum
DESCRIPTION:The Greensboro Arboretum is a long narrow 17-acre “island” located in the Lindley Park neighborhood. It has about 2 miles of trails and paths\, most of which are paved.  Meet just inside the entrance next to the Education Center.  For information about the park\, go to the following website: http://www.greensborobeautiful.org/gardens/greensboro_arboretum.php. \nRegister here or contact the field trip coordinator\, Don Allemann\, dallemann@aol.com\, if you plan to participate. Participants are welcome to come without contacting the coordinator\, but you may miss us if there are last minute changes in the trip details. Trip coordinators will contact those who register with updates on weather issues\, changes in timing or meeting places\, and other details. \nWe will explore several sections as time allows. Near the entrance to the arboretum are informal flowerbeds around a vine arbor that attract many butterflies and other pollinators. An adjacent small creek has milkweeds and other wild plants that usually are left un-mowed. This combination often draws butterflies to the park\, especially if it has rained recently. A paved walkway will take a visitor several hundred yards along the creek to the official butterfly garden that is in the shape of two butterflies around a small pool. As trees have grown up around the garden\, the site has become shaded part of the day so there may be more butterflies along the creek than actually are in the garden. \nThis will be a fun butterfly walk for the more seasoned butterfliers\, as well as butterfly photographers\, beginners\, and older children who are accompanied by an adult. Guests are welcome but no pets\, please.
