Projects
Become a volunteer! There are opportunities that range from administrative and educational to hands-on construction and land management. Some BCWA volunteers prefer to greet the public at festivals or to work in the office on mailings, others would rather just build things, some prefer to take out life's frustrations by battling invasive plants while others prefer planting, and a core group seems to be involved in every activity. Guidance for newcomers is provided by the experts and experienced volunteers.
If you would like to get involved as an individual in any of these volunteer activities or if you have a group interested in participating in community service projects, please contact Administrative Coordinator Bob Limbert at admin@beavercreekwetlands.org or call our office (937) 320-9042.
