Volunteers needed for Long Beach Marsh tours

A few good volunteers are needed as tour guides to help Stratford 4th graders experience the beach and marsh on field trips.

There will be about 12 field trips, each lasting about two hours. Participation at all is not mandatory.

The trips are in May until mid-June.

Activities include exploration, field identifications, catch and release of crabs, snails, and fish, plus simple interpretations of the importance of our coastal ecosystem.

Focus will be on areas of the intertidal zone, a saltmarsh creek, and the upper marsh.

Candidates will work with an experienced guide.

If you like working with kids, nature, fun, sun, and don’t mind a little mud, then this may be a rewarding experience that you won’t forget.
