SUNY New Paltz student interested in volunteering to help with the grand opening of the Ancestor’s Trail: USA? This event, with opening ceremonies on Friday, 4/27/2018 and Saturday, 4/28/2018, will be a unique opportunity for our community. If you are interested in helping to contribute to the guidebook and/or to help lead groups on hikes on April 28 (in the beautiful Shawangunk Mountains of New Paltz), please note the following:

 

Volunteer Roles Needed:

* Docents who lead group hikes on 4/28

* Contributors to the Guidebook, providing brief descriptions of species found along these phylogenetic trails (info on this process is found here).

* Victorian-themed actors who will provide good Victorian cheer at the events of 4/27 and/or 4/28 (we can provide guidance on the process)

* General / Other (trust us, there will be lots to be done!)

If you are interested, please note that two of the co-directors of this project, Olivia and Aron (see below) have office hours in WH 317 (Aron: Monday and Thursday afternoons; Olivia, Thursdays, 11-1) and they will add your name and info into our database of volunteers and provide you guidance.

Here is to a great event in the field of science education!
