State of WRNP Environment: The comprehensive Stewardship Report provides a foundation for 2022. To learn more about successes and challenges, please go to the Environment Page.
Activities: We've added a few activities this year, including monthly winter workdays and our new Dear Human audio 'walk. No weather is too cold if you're dressed for it, so join us. The number of activities will increase as the weather warms. See our Activities Page for an up-to-date listing.
Meetings: Our community meetings continue to take place on Mondays at 7:p.m. every odd-numbered month and we try to keep them under an hour. These meetings take place at Greenbriar Field House. To request the sign-in link prior to a Zoom meeting, go to jhanna48@att.net.
