We are Looking for a Few Good Naturalists! Spring will soon be in the air! We Need YOU!
Join our team of dedicated volunteers
What better time to try something new? The trees will be bursting with buds. Forest violets will be peeking up above the leaf litter. Birds and frogs will be singing their courtship songs. Share this awakening with others. If you enjoy being outdoors sharing nature with children, join us for our training program. Our 4 week session begins March 2 and ends March 25. Training sessions are two days a week from 9:00 a.m.-12 noon. Training is fun, and will familiarize you with our trail system and its varied natural communities: forests, wetlands, and prairies. Following training, you will join other naturalists, each guiding a small group of children, for an hour or two one morning a week from April through May. If you are 18 or older, please call us for more information. No previous experience is necessary. 918-669-6644 |
