Plover Docents are trained in the classroom about plover biology and also at the beach for hands-on experience involving interactions with the public. Training sessions are scheduled once a month. A Snowy Plover Docent Manual, uniform t-shirt and badge, and weekly plover email updates are part of the package.
If you would like to find out more about the Docent Program, or would like to volunteer your time and become a Plover Docent, we would like to hear from you! The more docents we have, the better the chances for the recovery of the plover population at COPR and the species as a whole. If you are interested in becoming involved, but the "docent" work is not for you, please do not be discouraged. There are many other ways to help and we will find a way to get you involved. There is constant need for community outreach, office assistance, programming, design, and art, not to mention many other opportunities. |
