SUMMARY:Guided Walk at Doug Rayner Wildlife Refuge - Saturday Nov. 4\, 9 am
DESCRIPTION:Experience autumn at the Doug Rayner Wildlife Refuge on a free guided walk. The Refuge is located on Nockum Hill on a peninsula extending into the Barrington River and Hundred Acre Cove estuary. Owned by the Town of Barrington\, the Refuge’s public hiking trails traverse more than 70 acres of field\, forest and shoreline. \nREGISTER FOR THE WALK. \nThe walk will be led Peter McCalmont\, Chairman of the Doug Rayner Wildlife Refuge Management Committee\, and Charlie Brown\, retired DEM wildlife biologist and a board member of the Barrington Land Conservation Trust. The walk is scheduled for Saturday\, Nov. 4\, at 9 am (rain date\, Sunday\, Nov. 5\, 9 am). \nNockum Hill has figured prominently in Barrington’s history. Once home to the Pokanoket people\, it is the site of the first Baptist meetinghouse in the New World. Legend has it that the first shots of King Philip’s War were fired nearby. \nThe terrain is mostly gentle but may be wet in places\, with moderate inclines. Dress for the weather and wear sturdy shoes or boots. The walk will last about an hour and a half. All ages are welcome. \nThe town acquired the land in the 1960s and designated it as a wildlife refuge in 1994. The Barrington Land Conservation Trust was granted a conservation easement on the property in 2005 to ensure the property remains protected in perpetuity. This sensitive land is managed by the Doug Rayner Management Committee in collaboration with the Land Trust. \nIn 2000\, the Refuge was named after ardent naturalist Doug Rayner\, a member of the Barrington Conservation Commission and a board member of the Barrington Land Conservation Trust. \nDoug was instrumental in protecting the marshes and upland buffers of the Palmer and Barrington Rivers\, Nockum Hill and Hundred Acre Cove\, and was active in protecting endangered species and their habitats. \nThe Barrington Land Conservation Trust has preserved nearly 300 acres of open space in perpetuity for the benefit of the public.
