Calendar

Field trip schedules are included in Native News, which is mailed bi-monthly to all members. If you know about an event that didn't get in there, or if you need to update event information, send e-mail to webmanager @ mdflora.org.

More local events that are not sponsored by MNPS and are not posted here might be included on a Chapters page. Plus, many of our Habitat Restoration Projects are not listed here; there is usually something on-going each weekend, but you will need to contact the coordinator to confirm.

Mailing Party

Help MNPS package the next issue of Native News at our mailing party. It's a good time to chat with fellow members, while volunteering with one of our most important jobs - folding, labeling and getting Native News ready for the bulk mailing.

Light refreshments will be available (feel free to bring something to share as well). Occasionally, we have free plants for volunteers. We have the parties tentatively scheduled for:

  • Tuesday, June 24, 2008, 6:30 - 7:30pm

All mailing parties will take place before the monthly meeting at the monthly meeting location.

We work until it's done. It goes faster with more volunteers!

Contact: Karyn Molines, mailings @ mdflora.org.
