2021 Speaker Meetings

October 30th:  Kaweah Oaks Preserve, times TBA

“Kids in Action”

A Saturday morning of events for kids interested in learning how they can become more involved with other kids in local environmental projects. This will be a morning planned for and organized by kids from several county communities.  Details will be announced in September.

​

​

When in-person speaker meetings resume, they will be preceded by a no-host dinner at Marie Callender’s (Mooney at HWY 198) at 5:15 pm, where you can usually meet the speaker. The first part of the meeting is business and usually lasts 15-20 minutes.  The second part of the meeting includes a presenter on a conservation topic or photo presentation, open questions, and refreshments.  We meet only during the school year (September - May) and we do not have general meetings in December and January.
