The presentation goals were to cover a brief <br />23 overview of the volunteer program, provide a status report and offer information on how the <br />24 Commission and public can help. <br />25 <br />26 The following is the vision of the Natural Resources Program: volunteers, staff, and consultants <br />rd <br />27 working together to accomplish our goals. Initially, the vision was met with the every 3 Saturday <br />28 volunteer events. However, going forward only having a once a month event will not be enough to <br />29 keep up with the need. As a result, multiple types of Natural Resources Events have been introduced, <br />30 including: <br />31 <br />32 Staff/contractor led <br />33 Volunteer led <br />34 Informal <br />35 Arboretum Green Team <br />36 Adopt-a-Park volunteers <br />37 Community service volunteers <br />38 Eagle Scout projects <br />39 Informal – self-guided <br />40 <br />41 <br />42 <br />43 <br />1 <br />6 <br /> <br />
