Vote to Help Name White Memorial’s Baby Rat Snakes

Only a few days remain to make $1 donations to vote and help name the White Memorial Conservation Center’s baby rat snakes.

Sunny and Luna are the names with a solid lead, but Zig and Zag could make a comeback, while the moment may have passed for Hocus and Pocus.

You can vote as many times as you like, so theoretically it’s possible to tip the scales in favor of any of the options. But act quickly, as voting only continues through Election Day, Nov. 5.

Donations made in the naming game will go toward the Animal Care Fund, which benefits all of the live animals at White Memorial.

The White Memorial Foundation preserves span Litchfield and Morris with 4,000 acres of forests, fields and wetlands etched by 40 miles of trails for hiking, biking, cross-country skiing and horseback riding. It was created in 1913 by Alain C. White and his sister, May W. White.

The main area off Route 202 in Litchfield is home to the Conservation Center and Nature Museum. See the website to learn more and connect with White Memorial’s ongoing series of guided hikes and may other events.
