SUMMARY:🥾 E & O Volunteer Opportunity: VES Land Trust School Trips
DESCRIPTION:VES Land Trust has a few more Fall opportunities on the calendar! We are excited to offer Accomac and Northampton Elementary schools the opportunity to visit Brownsville Preserve and participate in a nature walk covering a variety of habitats\, living vs. nonliving\, and natural resources.\n\n\nMonday November 25th – Kegotank classes\n\nThe day will look something like this:  (** time adjustments will be made according to schools distance to Preserve) \n\n\n\n9:15/9:45 a.m. Students arrive\, buses drop off at the TNC office at Brownsville Preserve\,  11332 Brownsville Rd\, Nassawadox\, VA 23413\n9:45 a.m. Welcome and introduction by VESLT\n10 a.m. 1 mile nature walk with scavenger hunt on the Birding and Wildlife Trail\n11:15 a.m. Activities – identifying bones and shells\, art reflection/journaling based on the scavenger hunt\, platform looking over the marsh and to the Barrier Islands\n12 p.m. Lunch (please bring your lunch\, we will have some snacks available for volunteers)\n1 p.m. 1 mile walk back to the office where busses pick up\n\nIdeally\, we will have enough volunteers (6-8) to co-lead a class of students or to break the classes into smaller groups. I will also be looking for help leading the shell/bone identifying and marsh/Barrier Island viewing platform activities. For the shell/bone identification\, TNC lends us a bin of shells and bones collected locally. For the viewing platform\, the leader will take 5 students at a time up to look out over the marsh. You can talk about marsh habitat\, tides\, and the Barrier Islands with them. The classes will rotate through each activity. \n\n\nTo sign up or get more information please contact Sam Willis\, Community Outreach Coordinator.
