Events and criteria

New England Chapter events take many forms to engage our membership, and unless otherwise stated events are open to members and non-members.
Our programming consist of;

  • Meet and Greets / Networking Socials 

  • Speaker Series (in person and online)

  • Exploring our Backyard - out in the field

  • Meetings (in person and online)


We welcome ideas and participation. If you are proposing a talk or an event please consider the criteria below which the Programming Committee uses to create talks/events.

  • We prioritize members as speakers/hosts of events

  • Content should be new/timely (if not new, an anniversary, relevant to breaking news etc)

  • The speaker/host cannot have led an event in the last 3 years (to give other members a chance)

  • We strive to reach across all six New England States, so we especially encourage non Massachusetts proposals
