Armand Bayou Nature Center seeks volunteers

The Armand Bayou Nature Center is currently in need of volunteers.

Those who are interested can choose from volunteer positions in environmental education, resource stewardship, facilities maintenance and visitor service programs. No experience or particular skills are needed to start, but volunteers must be at least 18 years of age.

The next volunteer orientation is scheduled for two half-day sessions in September at the nature center. An overview of Armand Bayou Nature Center and the volunteer opportunities will be held on Saturday, Sept. 17 at 9 a.m. On Saturday, Sept. 24, basic training and a guide to advanced training and specialized assignments will be held.  

Both days will include classroom and outdoor activities, so people should bring a sack lunch and sturdy shoes. Both sessions will conclude by 2 p.m.

Advance reservations and volunteer program details are available at www.abnc.org. To reserve a space, call 281-474-2551.

The Armand Bayou Nature Center is located at 8500 Bay Area Blvd.
