Seldovia BioBlitz — May 28-31, 2025
A BioBlitz is a communal effort to identify as many species as we can in a short period of time in a particular area; in this case, we will focus on Outside Beach and environs. Usually, BioBlitzes only last 24 to 48 hours, but we are going to spread ours out over four consecutive mornings, and focus on a different topic each day. In conjunction with the extreme low tide on Wednesday May 28, Erin and Valisa will host an exploration of INTERTIDAL INVERTEBRATES. On Thursday May 29, Tania Spurkland will guide us in discovering MACROALGAE (a.k.a. seaweeds). On Friday May 30, Cindy Mom will focus on BOTANY. And on Saturday May 31, Cindy Mom will inventory all the BIRDS. We could use your help! The more observers, the more we will see.
Sponsored by the Seldovia Arts Council, this is a free event! If you are coming from out of town, you’ll have to plan ahead since we’ll start each day at 9:00 AM. Come on over and camp or stay overnight in Seldovia. This will be Seldovia’s first-ever BioBlitz! Let’s make it a good one.

Seldovia Public Library is Calling For Volunteers
The library is in need of help!
We have been running our Summer Schedule (see comments) since April 1st, and are currently open 14 hours a week. We need at least one or two new circulation shift volunteers for the summer, or else we’ll have to scale back and eliminate a day out of our schedule.
Volunteer positions are open to everyone, whether you’re a full time or seasonal resident. You can take on a 2-hour circulation shift each week, or join our on-call list to serve as a substitute.
Volunteering at the library is a great way to meet people, find out about all the latest new books and movies, and really feel like you are serving the community.
For more information, or to sign up, contact us at seldovia.library@gmail.com, visit us in person, or call us at 907-234-7662 during library hours.
