July 2016
What a HOT July we had in 2016! There were a lot of days it was “too hot to work,” but we did anyway. The highlights from this month are: TIP’s reach rate continues to grow. Our coordinator is now a walking specimen! Keep an eye out for Japanese Knotweed, Cut-Leaved Teasel, Spotted Knapweed, and Phragmites in August. Cut-Leaved Teasel has been found in Elton. Langlade County passed a resolution to support TIP. Langlade County will have a new invasive species position next year. Our finances are looking strong for 2016 & 2017.
