Reminder + Handouts (1 more day!)

Hi Prairie Blitz Attendees,

Thank you for your interest in joining our fun event at Glacial Heritage Preserve on this coming Saturday at 9:30 am! Just a quick reminder, please do read over the driving directions to the preserve under our EventBrite FAQ section--it can be pretty tricky since the entrance is on an unnamed road (Note: Do NOT input the preserve name in your GPS Apps; this takes you to the wrong area--I've made that mistake before!).

These handouts will be provided for you at the beginning of the event:

However, in case you wanted a head start, the Introduction Handout provides an itinerary, general background information, a map with key locations, and descriptions of the three teams you will choose from. The iNaturalist Handout provides step-to-step instructions for making and submitting an observation on both the app and computer. If you have a smartphone, please do download the app, set up a free account, and try out one or two practice observations!

We have rounded up a very knowledgeable and passioniate team of volunteer experts, hosts, and helpers, who are all very excited to meet you!

Best,

AmeriCorp Jeffrey

Register Now for the Prairie Blitz at Glacial Heritage!

Hi All,

We've rounded up our scientist and naturalist experts (i.e., Bird, Plant, and Pollinator/Bug nerds)! Now, it's time for you to register at: https://prairieblitzglacialheritage.eventbrite.com

MARK YOUR CALENDARS:
Saturday, June 3, 2017, 9:30 AM – 1:30 PM

DIRECTIONS:
The Glacial Heritage Preserve entrance is on an unnamed road off of Mima Rd SW, so please use the following coordinates: 46.865538°, -123.054002° (using just the preserve name will take you to the wrong location!)--you can simply type the coordinates on Google Maps.

Also, please read through our Eventbrite page, as it will inform you of what to bring and how to prepare for the Prairie Blitz!

Stay tuned!
