Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy Events March 2021
Special Events:
Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy is slowly starting to allow participants to join in its monthly outside activities. This is exciting to hear because last year we were unable to enjoy outdoor volunteer opportunities that the Conservancy has to offer.
Virtual Family Nature Club will take place on Saturday, March 13, 2021, at 9:30 a.m. This month the special theme will be Whales. They will be highlighting the children’s book Be Brave and Be Kind: the Story of Eleanor the Whale. There will be fun activities from the Cabrillo Marine Aquarium for you to follow along with from home. This is a free family fun program but you need to advance register for zoom access by clicking here.
The Education Docent Zoom Orientation will take place on Saturday, March 20, 2021, from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. This is a great opportunity to become a Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy Docent and share your love of nature with the community. The orientation will introduce you to the different opportunities available such as volunteering in the Nature Centers engaging with visitors, helping with native plant sales, supporting the new Nature Club for Families, and/or leading Nature Walks. Docents can also sign up to teach local 3rd graders about the natural history of the Peninsula. They will provide all the training, lesson activities, and materials. As a volunteer you can also enjoy enrichment activities as part of the friendly Docent Community. For more information sign up at www.pvplc.volunteerhub.com.
