Audubon Canyon Ranch Docent Training Open House
Volunteer
Open House in August to give potential volunteers the opportunity to learn
about Audubon Canyon Ranch’s award-winning 22-week docent training program,
meet Audubon Canyon Ranch’s biologists and talk with other docents.
The docent training program
begins in September 2014. Topics of the comprehensive high quality training
include classes on local birds, wildflowers, mammals, amphibians, spore and
seed producing plants, regional plant communities and nature education
techniques. Upon graduation, docents
visit elementary classrooms and lead small groups of students on trails at the
preserve as part of ACR’s Elementary School Environmental Program, which
provides nature education to thousands of schoolchildren each year, free of
charge.
