This program is intended for High School aged teens. Teens will participate in citizen science projects, conservation efforts, learn about wildlife, and hone their public speaking skills.

 

As a ZCC member, you will take the knowledge and skills that you learn through training sessions to station around the zoo and educate visitors. In addition to talking with the public, ZCC members will also learn about local wildlife and help restore habitats.

 

Training/conservation projects will take place one Sunday a month from September - May.
