Chehalis River Discovery Trail Field Studies (complimented by City-led tours of Centralia’s Wastewater Treatment Plant)
The Chehalis River Basin Land Trust needs your help!
We are looking for enthusiastic, nature-loving volunteers to assist with our May 2016 Chehalis River Discovery Trail, (CRDT) field studies for local underserved school children, grades 4-8.
During the field studies, students will discover the benefits of healthy riparian corridors to salmon, wildlife—and to humans!
The field studies are generally held from 9:30am to 1:30pm.
Share your love of the outdoors with the next generation!
Come to our May 11th field training, from 10:00am to 2:00pm at the Chehalis River Discovery Trail and become ready to be part of this hands-on science and nature program. Trained volunteers may also help with free summer nature walks along the CRDT for the public!
For more information, or to RSVP for the training, please contact Kathy Jacobson, kathyjacobsonCRBLT@gmail.com.
