Our SWAT TEAM (site work action team) is comprised of volunteers who don't mind getting their hadns dirty and helping our nature campus looking great! We have a team of volunteers that help us maintain our grounds with most tasks encompassing landscaping, weeding, and other general maintenance. We have organized events on a monthly basis to tackle specific tasks, and volunteers can also help at their own convenience.
