CIU Socials
Citizen Scientists, you're invited. Monthly social gatherings (via Zoom) are your chance to visit with others who share your passion for using plants to control buckthorn.
Fourth Wednesday of every month at 7 pm
Gatherings at Cedar Lake

What to expect:
- Casual visiting & conversation with other Citizen Scientists
- Staff will be present to answer questions about data collection and other "sciencey stuff," but no formal program is planned.
Parking: Be prepared for limited options. A U-shaped lot with ~20 spots is located nearby off Cedar Lake Parkway, close to where W 25th St comes to a "T" with Cedar Shore Drive. You may have to park in a residential neighborhood and walk a few blocks to the meeting area.
