A portion of the Amherst Trail is temporarily closed due to active coyote activity in the area.   For your safety, all residents including your pets, are asked to stay out of the designated closed section until further notice. 

 

Please be advised that tampering with wildlife traps is strictly prohibited.  Anyone found interfering with the traps will be subject to a fine of $3,000 per Department of Natural Resources (DNR).  

 

The coyotes in the area have not been deemed rabid and will not be harmed.   Due to an overpopulation, they are being humanely relocated. 

 

We appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we work to ensure the safety of our community.

 Curious about ChatGPT and how to use it? The Lecture Forum’s next program on April 12 will be an Introduction to Artificial Intelligence & the ChatGPT platform. 

 

This program is designed for those who want to explore this powerful Artificial Intelligence tool. ChatGPT is a conversational assistant that can help with tasks like researching legal and medical questions, drafting emails, making lists, planning trips, and sparking creative ideas.  And, yes, if you like, it will even have a conversation with you!

 

Our speaker, Tiffany DiPanni, is the founder of Socially Savvy Seniors, which specializes in providing continuing education tech programs geared especially for seniors.  Tiffany will break down what ChatGPT is, how it works, and why it’s so popular.  Whether you want to write a story, organize your schedule, or just chat with a virtual assistant, this lecture will show you how.
