Sammamish NWF Habitat Stewards Training
IT'S A NEW YEAR, SIGN UP TO BECOME A HABITAT STEWARD!
The National Wildlife Federation, in partnership with the King County WaterWorks Grant Program, is offering a specialized multi-course training to teach you how to help others create and restore wildlife habitat in backyards, schoolyards, and other private and public areas. This program is engaging, fun and highly informative and you get to meet and interact with local conservation professionals and other similarly interested folks!
Benefits include: an NWF volunteer t-shirt, hands-on training, engaging field trips, a comprehensive training manual with local resources, instruction from local professionals, and continued support from NWF staff.
A variety of topics will be presented on habitat restoration, PNW ecology, natural yard care, invasive plants, native plants, & much more! Presenters will be announced soon!
Classes will be held over a period of 4 weeks on Mondays (2/25, 3/4, 3/11, and 3/18) from 6pm-9pm at Camp Terry (2/25), the Sammamish YMCA (3/4), the Sammamish Library (3/11), and the Sammamish YMCA (3/18). Field trip sessions will be held on two Saturdays (March 2 and 16).
*Scholarships are available! No one will be turned down to lack of funds. Email WAEducation@nwf.org for more information.
**A 30-hour volunteer commitment within a year after the training is required. We will provide coffee, tea, and light snacks at each training session and you are welcome to bring a brown bag dinner. Local food businesses occasionally provide donations and we will inform participants ahead of time in this case.
If you would prefer to pay using a check, please email WAEducation@nwf.org to register! Sign up soon, spaces are limited!
