Marsh Ambassadors (Preserve Entrance) are the first person the general public encounters when visiting the Madrona Marsh Preserve. Ambassadors provide a first impression of the Madrona Marsh and may be the only member of the Madrona team with whom visitors communicate. The Marsh Ambassador is positioned at the entry station to the Madrona Marsh Preserve, greets visitors and logs them in and out on the daily record sheet. They also provide information, maps, and handouts to visitors and advises guests regarding guidelines and rules. This position is located outdoors (under a covered station).

Mission Statement
The Friends of Madrona Marsh is a non-profit organization of volunteers dedicated to the preservation, education, and aesthetics of the Madrona Marsh Preserve. We are the stewards and advocates for the Preserve and work in coordination with the City of Torrance. We create programs, sponsor, and conduct activities that promote the understanding, enjoyment and preservation of the marsh. Volunteers also lead tours as docents and assist in Nature Center and Preserve projects. The Friends of Madrona Marsh has been the backbone of the Madrona Marsh Preserve for more than forty years.
Description
The Madrona Marsh Preserve needs volunteers at our entry station (outdoors) and inside of our Nature Center to help greet visitors, answer questions, and monitor visitor numbers.
