Poppy Reserve volunteer training for 2020 wildflower season

 

January 18, 2020



The Antelope Valley California Poppy Reserve’s two-day volunteer training for the 2020 spring wildflower season will be held on Saturdays Feb. 1 and 8 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Learn about the wildflowers, wildlife, history and volunteer duties at the training, and then meet people from around the world who have come to see our beautiful wildflowers. Volunteer opportunities include staffing the visitor center and gift shop, walking the trails, and/or leading tours.

Volunteers may range in age from student to senior citizen and no experience or prior knowledge is required. Volunteers must be interested in learning and have a positive, friendly attitude. New volunteers must attend both training days and pass a background check. The active season is from March 1-May 10 (Mother’s Day), and a minimum average of eight hours per month is required (scheduling is flexible). Call (661) 946-6900 or email Jean.Rhyne@parks.ca.gov for more information or to sign up for the training.
