[BCNnet] Invitation: Field Trips!

[bobolnk at ix.netcom.com]

The Habitat Project and the Volunteer Stewardship Network invite all restoration volunteers, monitors, interpreters, and advocates to join us this spring and summer for Habitat Clinics at six sites in different parts of Chicago Wilderness. Each site was selected for its unique characteristics, issues, and programs, and the talented people who know the site.

Each three-hour-long clinic will feature on-the-spot field presentations with plenty of time for discussion. Site stewards will lead the clinics with support from regional experts, monitors, and experienced volunteers. Detailed information about each program and directions are available on line at www.habitatproject.org:
