Call for citizens who want to help protect estuary

The Peconic Estuary Project is seeking concerned residents to join its Citizen’s Advisory Committee, the organization’s outreach and education arm. An informational meeting for prospective members will be held Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. at the Southampton Town Community Center in Flanders.

The CAC works to connect community interests and concerns with PEP program goals. Its members share their time and skills and offer ideas aimed at protecting the Peconics and sustaining the local environment. Anyone who wants to make a difference — teachers, artists, boaters, fishermen, business owners, students and so on — can get involved and contribute.

For more meeting information, contact Jennifer Skilbred at 765-6540, ext. 212, or [email protected].
