SUMMARY:Whiting Road Nature Preserve Field Trip - Registration Opens September 3\, 2022 at 7:30pm
DESCRIPTION:This preserve includes about 240 acres of land that is made up of a variety of birding habitats.  This results in decent birding lists throughout the year.  The trails are well marked and maintained.  However\, they do get muddy at times\, so appropriate footwear is recommended based on the weather leading up to the trip date.  Most of the trails are somewhat flat\, but there definitely will be a bit of up and down trail climbing in some sections.  Hopefully\, our trek will take us on parts of the blue\, brown\, orange\, and red trails.  Moderate difficulty in a few spots. Length about 2.5 miles. \nRestrooms are not available. \nMeet at 8:00 a.m. in the parking lot on Whiting Road in Webster\, 0.6 miles south of Lake Road. \nRBA Guidelines for Field Trips  \nIn order to protect the health of our birders and the wider community\, and in order to ensure compliance with any NYS COVID-19 mandates that might be in effect\, the following policies and guidelines will govern our field trips for the foreseeable future. By registering for a field trip\, you acknowledge that you have read and will abide by these policies. \nRegistration:  \n\nAdvance registration through Eventbrite will continue for all field trips.\nRegistration opens at 7:30 p.m. seven days before the trip date.\nGenerally\, capacity limits have been greatly expanded\, but will be determined on a trip-by-trip basis with input from leaders (or if there are NYS mandates).\nIf you are not be able to attend\, we encourage you to cancel your reservation before 1:00 p.m. the day before the trip to make room for others. (Canceling is done through the your Eventbrite confirmation email.)\n\nHealth Screening Considerations:  \n\nFull contact information is required at registration\, in case contact tracing is requested.\nNo one who has any COVID-19 symptoms (or Flu or cold\, for that matter!) should attend.

[The current (August 2022) CDC protocol\, for COVID-19 is a minimum of 5 days isolation ended only if there is no fever\, without medication\, on day 6 or after 24 more hours without a fever. After that\, one is to wear a mask for another 5 days when outside the home.]\nNo one unwilling to wear a mask who has been in close contact (within 6 feet) with anyone who has tested positive for COVID-19 or who has had symptoms of COVID-19 within the past 10 days\, should attend.\nParticipants who test positive for the coronavirus within 14 days after attending a field trip are encouraged to contact the RBA at info@rochesterbirding.org.\n\nSafety Best Practices:  \nIf participants have met the above requirements: \n\nMask wearing is optional.\nScope use/sharing is allowed.\nYou are encouraged to keep hand sanitizer with you.\n\nWaive and Release from Liability: By registering for this field trip you acknowledge that you assume all risks and hazards incidental to the activities of the event\, including potential exposure to the novel coronavirus.
