Training Series for Agency Partners and Habitat Stewards
The Green Tacoma Partnership has created a training series that consists of four trainings to be held in November and December 2011. The trainings are open to City staff, agency partners, and Habitat Stewards. Thanks to Rick Lynch and everyone who made the first training, The 21st Century Volunteer, a great success. The next two trainings will be held at Discovery Park (Seattle) on December 7, 2011. Join us from 9:30 am to 11:30 am for a training on Noxious Weeds Identification, and from 1 pm to 3 pm for a training on Native Plant Identification . If you are interested in participating please RSVP to Sue Wattier at swattier@tahomaaudubon.org or call 253-686-2873.

Thanks to everyone who participated in the exotic woodbooring beetle trainings!
Our expert facilitators taught 33 trainees about how to protect our healthy forest ecosystem by participating in a citizen survey searching
for Asian longhorned beetles and other exotic forest pests. The trainings were made possible through a grant from the US Forest Service, Urban and Community Forestry Program. Interested in learning more about Asian longhorned beetles...CLICK HERE!
