Interns With Beaver

FNPCW Welcomes Summer Interns

The Friends are thrilled to introduce our membership to two Northland College student interns who are working at Beaver Hollow over the summer session. They are assisting with the installation of the last section of boardwalk, conducting forestry projects, and learning about wetlands.

Cecilia Manno is a rising senior majoring in geology. She is originally from Pennsylvania and was introduced to Wisconsin as a student at Conserve School. Cecilia enjoys swimming and skiing, and has served as the President of the Northland College Ski Club. She loves geology and outdoor recreation, and is dedicated to sharing her deep regard for the area with others.
Peyton Keith is a 2022 Northland graduate with a Natural Resources major with an emphasis in ecological restoration, and a minor in Geoscience. She is from the local area and grew up in Red Cliff. Peyton is passionate about wetlands and wants to share her knowledge with her community. She hopes to have a professional career in the Natural Resources field.

When you see the interns working at Beaver Hollow, please stop and introduce yourself. They’d like to meet the Friends’ members who have made the Beaver Hollow project possible.
