We will do two Intro to Vernal Ponds programs for kids 7-12 years old.  Video critters and likely a brief field trip to one of their vernal ponds.  We’ll need a volunteer or two.

Last month, Evilyn, the white-lipped python, and Skeletor’s girlfriend, laid eggs.  Looks like 6 or 7.  They are in the incubator at 85 degrees F. and quite humid.  We got two babies from one of our ribbon snakes.  They are live born.  And our garter snake had 12 babies.  Also live born.  On July 7th our Honduran milksnake laid 3 eggs.  Today, our albino Nelson’s milksnake laid seven eggs.  Whew.

I know you’re all saving the date for:

CAVPT Benefit Concert/Auction with Charlie Farren all acoustic show. He’s really a talented musician, fun and dynamic performer.  Local musician, Satch Kerans will open the show.  Rick Roth, from Littleton MA will be there with some of his cool critters.  He’s the guy that was at our concert last year.  And Gloucester Rick Roth (that’s me) will be there with some critters as well.  There will be some auction/raffle action.  This is going to be a great show.  Its also a benefit for CAVPT so we need all of you to come out and support us and bring your friends.  Gonna be fun.

We need sponsorships for this show… so, if you know somebody… or you are somebody who would like to sponsor us for this event, please get in touch.It has come to my attention that some people have been responding to these listserv emails, and they are not getting to me. So… if you want to get in touch, please send an email to me at cavpt@yahoo.com

I  keep leaving this in here because nobody keeps responding to it.  Someone out there must know something about listservs.  Please get in touch.  People are telling me they are not getting these listserv emails.  We had this other listsev before and the same thing happened after a while so we got a new listserv (this one) and now its happening all over again.  Anybody out there know anything about listservs who might be able to help get this straightened out?  It is certainly our most important form of communication for notifying the team about events and stuff.

Later,  Rick

we only have one earth, save it
