Volunteers needed to monitor wetlands
Event Navigation
Hennepin County’s Wetland Health Evaluation Program (WHEP) is looking for volunteers to monitor wetlands in Minneapolis and other areas of the county. Adult volunteers with an interest in wetlands, bugs and/or plants are needed. No science background or previous experience is required. Hennepin County provides all of the training, equipment, and leadership. The total time commitment is 15 hours per month, June-September 2016. Partnering cities use the data collected to determine the health of water resources and assist with natural resource management. Volunteer applications will be accepted through June 15. For more information or to become a volunteer, call Mary Karius at 612-596-9129 or visit www.hennepin.us/volunteer.
