Help beachgoers appreciate and protect beaches—No experience needed
May 10, 2022 @ 5:30 pm – 7:30 pm
Help beachgoers appreciate and protect beaches as a Beach Steward!
With some extraordinary low tides expected this summer in Whatcom County and an influx of people finding new ways to get outdoors during the pandemic, our waterways need a little extra TLC — and we all have a part to play to protect beaches. Be a volunteer out at Larrabee and Birch Bay State Parks over the summer and talk to folks about everything from tide pools to delicate ocean critters, and even (gasp!) poop pollution. A simple conversation with beach visitors can help them take care of it and appreciate it. We’re offering three free trainings in May 2022 — no naturalist experience needed! TRAINING DATES:
- May 3rd 5:30 – 7:30 PM (Part 1) at the RE Sources office, 2309 Meridian St, Bellingham WA
- May 10th 5:30 – 7:30 PM (Part 2) at the RE Sources office, 2309 Meridian St, Bellingham WA
- Part 3 is on the beach where folks can attend either or both: Sunday, May 15th 10AM – 12PM at Larrabee State Park Saturday, May 21st 3 – 5 PM at Birch Bay State Park
Part 1 and 2 will also be offered on Zoom! You’ll get Zoom links emailed to you when you RSVP below.
