Education Volunteer Information Session *Virtual*

September 12 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

- Free

***THIS IS A VIRTUAL EVENT***

The Clifton Institute provides around 40 field trips per year to around 1,200 pre-K-12th students from Fauquier County and beyond. During the field trips, students learn about the natural history of the Northern Virginia piedmont and participate in some of our ongoing research projects, such as our Native Grassland Restoration or Vernal Pool Monitoring!

We rely on an excellent team of volunteers to help run large field trips (sometimes 90 students at a time) alongside Clifton’s small education staff. This virtual program will be an introduction to Clifton’s educational mission, an overview of what field trips look like, and an opportunity for curious folks to hear about the volunteer positions available and ask questions.

If, after the online session you feel like you’d be willing to help with our field trip program, you can attend the in-person training on Friday, September 20th. All volunteers hoping to help with the education programs must attend the in-person training. Returning volunteers from previous years are encouraged but not required to attend the in-person training and do not need to attend this virtual session.

A Zoom link will be sent to registered participants the day of the event.

Cost: Free!

Age: Adults only.
