One of the best ways to keep track of invasion and spread is with mapping. Early Detection and Distribution Mapping System (EDDMapS) is a national web-based mapping system for documenting invasive species distribution to help make land management decisions. Whether you are a land owner who would like to map your own invasive species on your property, or you would like to aid in the overall documentation of invasives along your favorite hiking trails, join us for an evening of learning. In this session, you will learn how to create your own EDDMapS account. Ages: 16+ years • Instructor: CCPR Staff ACTIVITY# DATES

Expectations and consequences permit students an opportunity to eliminate inappropriate behavior. ESE Behavior Guidelines are enforced: • By all staff members at all times. • In substantial part by adult role modeling. • Using techniques that promote the growth of positive self-esteem. • As close to the source as is possible. • By holding students accountable for their actions. • By keeping parents informed. • By limiting group discipline to a maximum of one minute. • Through implementation of the Behavior Consequence Rubric.

STATEMENT OF ACCESSIBILITY Carmel Clay Parks & Recreation (CCPR) makes a good-faith effort to ensure all patrons, and the community at-large, are knowledgeable of the resources and opportunities available to them, which support full and active participation within CCPR’s parks, facilities, and programs. CCPR believes every individual has the right to participate in activities and programs that support their physical, mental, social and emotional wellness, and therefore contribute to enhancing their overall quality of life. Based on this belief, and CCPR’s vision and mission, we are committed to the provision of services for individuals of all ages, skills, and ability levels. This is achieved by identifying and removing barriers in order to serve individual and community needs, as well as to provide quality programs and services accessible to all; such as our many recreational, leisure, and education-based programs, volunteer opportunities, and interactive public events. CCPR is committed to compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act through making reasonable modifications as required by the ADA. Requests for modifications must be made through one of CCPR’s Inclusion Supervisors within 30 days of the start of the program of interest. CCPR will provide reasonable modifications as soon as possible after the commencement of the modification process. Specific criteria will be found on registration documentation. In addition, CCPR is dedicated to nondiscrimination in the provision of programs, services, and activities to the public. CCPR will continue to incorporate all consumer feedback, current research, and practice knowledge in order to continue meeting and exceeding customer/community satisfaction and to protect and promote access for all for generations to come.
