The “Floating Classroom” - Soon to be renamed Newfound Eco-Adventures!
|
The best way to experience what Newfound Lake and its Watershed are all about is to “get out” in our pontoon boat with family and freinds and see for yourself! We provide an educational program that includes hands-on water quality testing activities, as well as historical and ecological information and time to just soak in the sites and sounds of this magical place.
2010 tours are expected to leave and return from the NH Audubon - Paradise Point Nature Center in Hebron, NH. Tour schedules and activities will be posted by Memorial Day. Reservations will be required, and taken on a first come / first serve basis. Of course, Mother Nature gets the final say about whether we take the boat out on any given day.

Tours are available by request from May through September for:
- Town boards
- School classes (Newfound Area Schools receive first choice of available dates)
- Newfound Summer Camps
- Residents
- Visitors
- Anyone interested in learning about and preserving Newfound Lake and its beautiful setting!

Tours are provided to the public throughout the summer months - our summer schedule will be posted by the end of May. Groups must have between 4 - 8 adventurers for the boat to launch.
In the past we have received financial support from community partners Northway Bank (www.northwaybank.com) and the New Hampshire Electric Cooperative Foundation (www.nhec.com). Grant fund availability varies from year to year, so your generous donations are most welcome!
