A Decade of Virginia Master Naturalists

3/16/2015

 
The Virginia Master Naturalist program was officially launched in 2005.  That year, we set the basic guidelines and structure of the program, recruited our first set of 10 chapters, hired a statewide coordinator, and funded the statewide efforts of the program with support from our founding sponsoring agencies.  Since then, our sponsors, local partnering organizations, and especially our volunteers have helped us grow to a thriving program having significant positive impacts on Virginia's natural resources.  All year we will be celebrating our 10th anniversary, and we are starting now by sharing our 10th anniversary infographic - a snapshot of much of what our volunteers have accomplished over the last decade!

A web-ready image is included below, along with a downloadable press-quality version for printing.  Please help us share these amazing statistics with your networks!
