Come contribute to the Marin Wildlife Picture Index Project! This project depends on volunteer “Community Scientists” to help maintain wildlife cameras and process photos.
We are especially looking to train and retain volunteers for the long-term. At this training, we will use computers to view and catalog photos acquired from wildlife cameras in Marin. Newbies and experienced catalogers welcome. Ages 16 and up.
Register today at OneTam.org, as space is limited.
To pre-register or for more information about the volunteer event, call 415-945-1128 or e-mail volunteerprogram@marinwater.org or visit our Volunteer page

This is one of our older habitat enhance-ment projects. It is along a partly tidal reach of the creek reaching from Meadowood Drive to Doherty Drive. We’ll pull French broom and dig fennel and dandelions. The more ambitious volunteers can attack non-native blackberries and acacias. We’ll supply weed wrenches and some tools, but bring your favorite clippers, pruning saws, and shovels. Dress in layers, wear sturdy shoes and heavy gloves, and bring drinking water. Meet on Meadowood where it crosses Larkspur Creek. Call Sandy at (415) 456-5052 for information.
