LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

Julia Grumbles, President of the Highlands Biological Foundation

If you are like me, you are ready for spring and summer in Highlands. I am happy to report that over the winter, the Highlands Biological Foundation staff has been busy getting things ready for us by upgrading and adding to exhibits in the Nature Center, lining up a fantastic series of speakers for the Zahner lectures, tending to the Botanical Garden with improved trails and signage, and preparing for what may be our best summer camps ever! I encourage all of our readers, members, supporters, families and visitors to come and walk through our gardens and learn about our native plant species, take in the beauty of Lindenwood Lake and enroll in one of our summer workshops to deepen your knowledge and understanding of our unique biodiversity.

The Highlands Biological Station’s 23-acre campus is devoted to and focused on the Highlands plateau with our fascinating geologic history, critical watersheds and rich ecosystems. How do we do that? Through research, education, and exploration. And how do we support these critically important activities? Through your generosity. Your support over 91 years has provided the Foundation the resources to offer teachers, students, children and scores of Highlands families and visitors access to fantastic learning opportunites.

I hope you continue to support these activities by giving to the Highlands Biological Foundation, renewing your membership or becoming a new member.

The Foundation deeply appreciates and is grateful for your belief in our mission and to that end, we hope to begin construction this year on the North Campus. This addition will open up the Station property adjacent to the Lower Lake Road and provide the public easier access to enjoy a brilliant new pollinator garden, an improved trail around the lake and over its wetlands, and a teaching pavilion plus much needed new parking and restroom facilities.

I look forward to seeing you this summer,

Julia Grumbles

STATE OF THE STATION

A letter from Jim Costa, Executive Director of the Highlands Biological Station TWO STEPS FORWARD...

Greetings and Happy Spring! I say that optimistically, as elusive as spring has felt of late. The time between the waning days of winter and the arrival of "the season" always seems interminable to me. For every teaser warm day there are several cold rainy or snowy ones. But soon we'll turn a corner from "one step forward / two steps back" to "two steps forward / one step back," and soon after that we'll be off to the races. In the meantime we persevere, ever hopeful like the earliest wildflowers in the Botanical Garden, putting forth tentative shoots and flowers even mantled with spring snow.

We're in that state between planning our summer program and arrival of the much-anticipated summer season — expectant, as course registrations come in, Grant-in-Aid award notifications are sent out, course supplies are replenished, and the fiscal year budget clock counts down. Expectant in other ways, too. I've taken to joking that we have three major construction/renovation projects in various stages of not getting done... The revving up of the economy and the local construction climate may be a good thing overall, but it has put us at a disadvantage in terms of costs and responsiveness of contractors. We're moving forward, but the Cottages, Aquatics Lab, and North Campus projects are progressing painfully slowly.

Despite frustrations of construction delays, there is much to celebrate in our 91st year. First, we continue to innovate and experiment with programming. This year we hosted our first-ever "January Term" writing course, A Sense of Place. Taught by Hannah Rogers (Columbia), the course had 9 intrepid students from the University of Virginia. It was a great success despite weather-related challenges, culminating in a public reading hosted by our friends at the Hudson Library. This summer, too, we're offering another first: a collaborative field course between HBS and Wildsumaco Biological Station in Ecuador, a "hotspot to hotspot" comparative study of temperate & tropical mountain ecosystems.

S econd, we're excited about ongoing and new research and educational partnerships at the Station. For example, in the Botanical Garden lichenologists Jessi Allen & James Lendemer (New York Botanical Garden) are propagating an endangered lichen once common on the Plateau. Their technique bodes well for a larger-scale reintroduction effort. The Garden is also the site of on-going research on the ecology of celebrated Oconee Bells, by Matt Candeias of the University of Illinois. And, we're now part of the North American Bat Monitoring Program as a permanent NC monitoring site, led by Dr. Matina Kalcounis-Ruppell of UNC-Greensboro (who is also a new member of the HBS Board of Directors). The acoustic detectors installed will eventually be linked to a display in the Nature Center, so our diurnal human visitors can learn more about our nocturnal chiropteran visitors.

Last but not least, an important item in the Celebration Department is continued plans for integrating the Station fully with Western Carolina University. Our MOU is proceeding apace and the new relationship will come to fruition soon. WCU leadership greatly values the Station, our legacy, and what we mean to both the Highlands community and the broader scientific community, and we look forward to inaugurating this new chapter in the Station's long history.

L ook forward to seeing you at the Station soon —

NATURE CENTER

This summer the Highlands Nature Center offers many new and updated exhibits and activities. Our recentlycompleted waterways exhibit lets you explore a mountain stream and bog while learning the importance of watersheds. Temporary exhibits in May and June will take you on journeys through the Botanical Garden to look for endangered species and animal scat. Tuesday nights in June and July you can explore the tale a starlight stroll and listen for our froggy friends with our evening program series. Thursdays in June, HBS student researchers and special guests, Jeremy Hyman and Carlton Burke will lead fun and informative presentations for the whole family. And there’s more – a new geology exhibit, returning favorites, and exciting new Zahner lecturers among others! Join us for a summer season of learning and exploration in the natural beauty of the southern Appalachians! S ummer natue camps are a perfect way to inspire your child to become a better steward of our environment while having summer fun.

NEW EVENT! ROCKIN' THE HIGHLANDS PLATEAU

This June, get ready to rock as we explore the geology of the Highlands Plateau in a whole new way! Rockin’ the Highlands Plateau will be a two-day event on Friday, June 29 and Saturday, June 30. The celebration begins with a lecture by Dr. Scott Brame of Clemson University focusing on the facts and the mystique of the southern Appalachian mountains. The talk will be followed by a rockin’ reception in the meadow; including a cocktail buffet, wine, beer and rock-n-roll. On Saturday from 10:00am to 2:00pm, various geologists, naturalists and botanists will lead hikes focused on the extraordinary geological formations here on the plateau and their contributions to the Plateau's natural history. Lunch is provided. Whether you want to unlock the mysteries of Whiteside, learn more about the formation of beautiful waterfalls or are curious about how soils affect plant communities; there is much to learn and see. Tickets are $75 for members and $100 for non-members and go on sale May 1.

ANNUAL MEMbERSHIP MEETING

Join us during this exciting time of growth and help us plan for the future of h B f GENERAL MEMBERSHIP MEETING, June 23 at 3:00 PM the meeting will be held in the seminar room of the coker laboratory (265 n . 6th s treet)

NORTH CAMPUS UPDATE NORTH CAMPUS DONORS

The construction market in Highlands is currently thriving.  That is the good news.  The bad news is that it is making it difficult to find a qualified construction company with a reasonable bid.  We take our role as stewards of your contributions very seriously.  We are therefore unwilling to compromise the project by removing key aspects nor are we willing to reduce the scope of the project.   The Highlands Biological Foundation is now in discussions with Western Carolina, the owner of the property, to enter into a short-term ground lease.  This lease will enable the Foundation to act more quickly in attracting qualified, competitive and local bids.   Contractors are sometimes reluctant to enter into state-controlled projects.

We want you to know that in the meantime, we have successfully completed the full design of the project and all construction documents, obtained all the necessary permits, and raised sufficient funding to begin construction as originally planned.

We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all the donors who have supported the North Campus Campaign.  Like all of you, we are excited about these improvements and we look forward to welcoming all of you and our community to what we know will be a wonderful contribution to the Station, town, and community of Highlands.

Special thanks to...

HBS gratefully thanks Kimberly Coward for assisting us with the finalization of a temporary ground lease between Western Carolina University and HBF. Without Kim's thoughtful persistence, we would not be ready to begin construction of the North Campus. Thank you Kim!

We are so thankful to those who made the construction of the North Campus possible. Those who have given donations to this project include:

GARDEN UPDATE

What's going on in the garden?

Exciting things are happening in the Botanical Garden. As the weather warms, the beautiful spring ephemeral flowers are blooming along the trails. Take a stroll to see the spring blooms and also the improvements we have made since last summer. Thanks to the efforts of our garden committee and staff, you will see improvements in the bog garden, along the walkway between the Nature Center and the historical garden, and the Cherokee garden which will undergo more improvements this year thanks to a grant from the Cherokee Preservation Foundation.

The Lower Lake trail is a work in progress. An informal partnership between the Highlands Plateau Greenway and HBF is systematically addressing safety issues, erosion concerns and trail upgrades. Over the next year we plan to renovate more trails in the garden.

Staff, donors, and volunteers make the improvement and maintenance of the Garden possible. Many thanks to our staff horticulturalist, Chan Chandler, Dr. Larry Mellichamp, Mr. Hillrie Quin and our Botanical Garden Committee who have worked all winter to make these improvements. We hope you visit the Garden often over the summer, both to admire our renovations and to appreciate the Garden’s beauty. We are always looking for volunteers to help in the Garden. If you are interested, please let us know.

OUTREACH UPDATE

Informal science education provided by HBS extends student learning beyond the classroom through outdoor, hands-on activities that allow students to practice science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) concepts. We currently offer 50 different school outreach programs, each designed to meet the NC science curriculum standards for each grade level preK-12. In 2017, nearly 8,200 students were served through 221 outreach programs and community service events, totaling more than 13,500 contact hours in schools. That represents a 20% increase in students over the last year, and a remarkable 140% increase since Outreach became a designated department in 2014!

Service has expanded into 14 mountain counties, with outreach as far away as Andrews, Bryson City, Cherokee, and Brevard. A record 54 different schools received programming in 2017. HBS participates annually in the NC Science Festival’s “Invite a Scientist” Program at regional schools, and presents biodiversity project awards at the Western Regional Science Fair. This spring, Patrick Brannon will present live snake shows for hundreds of elementary students at the Smoky Mountain Center for the Performing Arts in Franklin.

Recently, HBS collaborated with the Macon County Academic Foundation, which has generously agreed to subsidize programs for local public schools. Duke Energy has also awarded a grant to HBS to assist with our outreach efforts. Their support will help HBS continue its science programming with minimal fees, and allow schools to take advantage of our educational resources at no cost to them. We greatly appreciate these two organizations’ commitment to informal STEM education.

For more details about our School Outreach Program, please contact Patrick Brannon at 828-526-4123.
