Adirondack Invasive Species Awareness Week

Adirondack Invasive Species Awareness Week is a park-wide effort, organized by the Adirondack Park Invasive Plant Program (APIPP). Celebrated annually the second week of July, the event raises awareness and educates the public about invasive species.

Various events about invasive species take place during the week throughout the Adirondack Park. Events change each year. The Lake George Association coordinates the events, and the participating presenters, for the Lake George region.

Lake George area events have included aquatic plant identification, benthic barrier installation, guided canoe and kayak tours, interpretive walks, forest pest training, and family activities.

Every year displays outside the Visitor Center in Lake George Village provide information about invasive species to the public.
