DescEnvironmental Research: Since its founding, the Lloyd Center has focused its research activities on assessing and documenting the distribution and ecology of the natural resources of southeastern New England. Collaborating with Tufts University, the Lloyd Center completed its 13th year as the Buzzards Bay coordinator of the Seabird Stranding Network, documenting instances of seabird mortality and live-bird activity on the western shoreline of Buzzards Bay. Lloyd Center scientists conducted rare-species habitat assessments in Essex County, Martha's Vineyard, and a number of other nearby locations. The Center also gathered baseline data for its Biodiversity Initiative, documenting the biota of southeastern Massachusetts. In collaboration with the Education staff, the Center's butterfly garden was expanded and renovated as part of the Biodiversity Initiative. The Center continued its collaboration with Martha's Vineyard conservation agencies and produced rare-habitat assessments for a growing number of private landowners. In addition to its continuing work in protecting Piping Plovers and state threatened species including Diamondback Terrapins on the Commonwealth's Division of Conservation and Recreation beaches in Bristol County, the Center completed its 29th year of monitoring and protecting the federally-listed ("threatened") Piping Plovers. Research staff also participated in Bioblitzes in Rhode Island, as well as the Rhode Island East Bay and the Massachusetts Bristol County North American Butterfly Association's 4th of July Butterfly Counts.Desc

DescEnvironmental Education: The Lloyd Center continues to provide an increasing number of unique hands-on science programs for schoolchildren and adolescents in over 30 different New England cities and towns, at levels ranging from kindergarten through college. This past year, the Lloyd Center worked with over 40 elementary and middle schools in the region, visiting a growing number of students on a regular basis to teach interactive lessons on relevant and critically important environmental issues. Three of the curriculum-based offerings, Feathery Focus (an ornithology program specially created for the third-grade level), Turn-the-Tide (a program dealing with the ecosystems of local estuaries, taught on the fifth-grade level), and the new Climate Science Learning Project, have proven to be especially effective. All education programs are designed to meet the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks in Science and Technology/Engineering and in History/Social Studies. For children ages 5-15, the Center's Education Department annually provides up to 15 distinct summer programs designed to help students develop a better understanding of science and a deeper appreciation for the need to protect the fragile nature of our coast. Every year, as many as 13,000 students benefit from participating in Lloyd Center education programs.Desc

DescEnvironmental Outreach: The Lloyd Center offers a wide variety of programs designed to engage the minds of southeastern New England citizens of all ages, expanding their understanding of the fragile nature of our coastal environment and the importance of working together to protect it. This past year over 870 people participated in popular programs, which included canoe tours, kayak trips, birthday parties, nature walks, shore-birding expeditions, seal-watches, whale-watches, midnight "owl-prowls", Migratory Bird Day and Family Fun Day events, butterfly and moth identification workshops, as well as our annual fall rowing and paddling regatta, designed to raise awareness of the threats facing the delicate ecosystems of local estuaries. Five miles of rustic hiking trails, open to the public every day from dawn to dusk on the Lloyd Center's Hardscrabble Nature Preserve, and a broad variety of live marine animal exhibits, complemented by programs and seminars, continue to draw a growing number of citizens of all ages to our Visitor Center. In addition, outreach collaboration with partnering organizations continues to prove exceptionally effective in promoting lifestyle changes aimed at a more sustainable use of natural resources. The Center's unique website provides a vast amount of environmental research and education information for those who seek it electronically.Desc

Part III, Line 4:The Center maintains invertebrate and vertebrate collections for Education, Research and Outreach activities. The Center's live collections remain on display for visitors.
Part V, Line 4:Our endowment ("permanently restricted") funds are used for income producing purposes. Pursuant to the expressed wishes of the donors of such funds, income from them is used to support the provision of education program-services and for the maintenance of our nature preserve and facilities in support of all program services.
Part X, Line 2:The Center is exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. However, income from certain activities not directly related to the Center's tax-exempt purpose is subject to taxation as unrelated business income. In addition, the Center qualifies for the charitable organization deduction under Section 170(b)(1)(A) and has been classified as an organization other than a private foundation under Section 509(a)(2). FASB ASC 740-10-25 requires that a tax position be recognized or derecognized based on a "more likely than not" threshold. This applies to positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Center does not believe its financial statements include any uncertain tax positions. The Center's federal and state Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Returns (Forms 990 and Mass PC) are subject to examination, generally for three years after they are filed.
