Easement and Preserve Monitor Training
May 7, 2022 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Are you always out hiking on CWC preserves?
Are you looking for a way to help make our preserves better?
Are you interested in seeing some of the special places that we protect through conservation easements?
Consider becoming a preserve or easement monitor this year!
Join us on Saturday May 7th at 10:00AM at Sylvan Solace Preserve for a hands on training session. Current monitors are not required to attend but are encouraged to do.
Please register for this training by calling (989) 772-5777. Attendance of this training does not commit you to becoming a monitor. If you are interested in becoming a monitor but are unable to attend this session give us a call.
Volunteer Monitors help us protect the conservation values of these special places by being our eyes on the ground. Easement monitors typically visit conservation easements once a year to check on current conditions and ensure that no violations of the easement have occurred. After a monitoring visit, monitors submit a 2 page report about their visit.
Preserve monitors are also required to submit a single report during the year but can submit as many reports about their assigned preserve(s) as they wish over the course of the year.
During this session you’ll learn about the type of things to look out for while monitoring, the photos we’d like to see from monitors, and how to complete a monitoring report.
