The COVID-19 safety restrictions are severely limiting the number and type of program we can offer this fall, but there are a few opportunities to formally connect with our team this fall, listed below. As in other years, however, there are also informal opportunities to learn about monarchs and the work of our project and to see the butterflies up close. If you're traveling around Cape May Point and see someone with a butterfly net, it should be someone working with our project, and they'll be happy to talk about monarch biology and research with you. We do ask that you follow all of the COVID-19 guidelines when meeting with our staff or volunteers by wearing a facial cover over your mouth and nose and maintaining a distance of 6 feet or more.
