SUMMARY:Building a Friends Volunteer Program
DESCRIPTION:How do you turn someone’s first volunteer shift into a lasting connection with their refuge? \nJoin us for a Refuge Friends webinar with Alex Marshall of the Friends of Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge. Alex will share ideas for recruitment\, onboarding\, recognition and continual management of a robust Friends volunteer program. \nWhether your Friends group is starting a volunteer program or looking for better ways to support the people who already show up for your refuge\, you’ll hear ideas to bring back to your group. \nPresenter & Host\n \n\nAlex Marshall is the Community Engagement and Programs Coordinator for the Friends of Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge. She first came to the refuge through graduate research\, completed three internships there\, and worked as a state fisheries biologist before returning to Ottawa.\nRobin Will is a retired U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service supervisory park ranger who built the visitor services program at St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge. She serves on the board of the Friends of St. Marks Wildlife Refuge.\n\nSign Up! \n
