Many voices from various backgrounds will fill out the instruction team including: the Mono Tribal Chairperson, present field researchers, professors, and experienced presenters. Participants will come away with a new understanding of the bioregions of California, especially the Sierra Nevada Range. Share the registration info with friends who are ready to experience Yosemite in the Fall. Join us to add new friends to your nature tribe, increase your knowledge, earn your California Naturalist Certificate, and 4 university credits.
Why would you want to learn more about nature?
The UC California Naturalist program is a week-long experience perfect for people who want to learn more about nature. Many State Park employees want to hone communication skills. Retired people who love nature often attend to increase their knowledge as they serve as volunteer docents. Others yearn to get “unstuck” and grow their relationship with natural spaces. Some need to add a new certificate to their resume or add 4 credits to their transcripts. Whatever YOUR reason, we are confident this time in lecture and field studies with experts will be a pivotal time of growth in your life. Come and earn your California Naturalist Certificate with us at Emerald Cove Outdoor Science Institute at Bass Lake, October 24-31, 2021. Several of the field trips will be in Yosemite National Park and surrounding areas of interest.
