[Maine-birds] A MUST READ IF VISITING SANFORD LAGOONS

Hello Birders,

 

    There has been violations of rules lately.

 

    FIRST: The weekend hours are 7 AM to 8:30 AM

    SECOND:  You must sign in and out.

    THIRD: Cars are not to be driven inside the gates around the dikes.  Please park in the visitor Parking area.  You may park on the east side of the main plant.

When the workers leave in the morning they do NOT go around and check if anyone is still there.  They punch out from work and go home to their families.  They do not like calls in the afternoon from the police that they have to go back and let someone out and disrupt their family life.

 

I have posted the hours and directions below.

 

They want people to enjoy the place and are always glad when we get something rare or unusual.

 

I am also aware that not all birders and hikers read this email from this list serve, so it is possible a non birder was to fault.

 

Happy birding
