Bergen SWAN has to clean house! We need organized, logical minds and strong backs to help us make better sense of our files and documents from over the years.
If you have some office administrative experience and want to help out an environmental cause, this would be ideal for you.

Through sponsorship of educational workshops, school lectures, and outdoor events, we give students, citizens, and public policy makers a new vision of our watershed buffer forests to motivate them to work toward protecting these lands and enhancing their natural beauty and functioning. We have helped create passive recreation nature trails in Emerson Woods and at Poplar Sanctuary in River Vale.
