Habitat Stewards Needed

The National Wildlife Federation, with the support of the Cuyahoga Soil and Water Conservation District and local nature resource professionals, is looking for dedicated individuals to train as Certified Habitat Stewards Volunteers. Trained and certified Backyard Habitat Stewards can help promote and encourage the principles of watershed protection as they assist community residents to create backyard habitats that are environmentally healthy and wildlife friendly.

To become a Certified Habitat Stewards Volunteer, you need to attend eight workshops at the City of Independence Community Center, 6363 Selig Drive. The workshops are Tuesdays and Thursday from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. from Sept. 9 through Sept. 25. There are also two Saturday field trips from 9 a.m. - 3 p.m. on Sept. 13 and 20. The fee is $50.

For more information, contact Terry Duncan at 440-225-9215, antelopetd@ameritech.net or visit the Cuyahoga Soil and Water Conservation website at www.cuyahogaswcd.org to register.
