Registration required: Please fill out the registration form at Southern Wisconsin Bird Alliance’s website! This is a free, hybrid presentation, with in-person and online viewing options.
This presentation and gathering are designed for individuals who lead nature-related field trips and outings, regardless of topic!
We have an exciting update to the night, which is we will have two fantastic presentations instead of one!
Jane Whitney, WI Master Naturalist and long-time field trip leader for The Ridges Sanctuary, will give her presentation on Herding Cats and how to make field trips fun, engaging, educational, inclusive, and memorable.
Rachael Lewandowski-Sarette, the On-Site and Accessibility Coordinator for Upham Woods Outdoor Learning Center in the Wisconsin Dells, is an expert and wonderful resource on incorporating accessibility into field trip design and descriptions from the get-go.
This is great for beginner, intermediate and very experienced field trip leaders as a way to incorporate fresh ideas and best practices into a field trip.
The presentation will last about 45 minutes, plus time for questions and answers, followed by a social time with snacks and beverages provided.
