New VMN Milestone Achievers, Summer 2020

8/19/2020

 
​The VMN State Program office recognizes volunteers who complete 250, 500, 1,000, 2,500, 5,000, and 10,000 hours of service.  These are cumulative volunteer hours starting when a volunteer joins the program.  Many of our chapters recognize additional interim milestones and achievements.  

Below, we have listed the volunteers (alphabetically, by chapter) who have achieved these milestones between January 2020 and July 2020.  The list is based on chapter reports received by our office as of July 31, 2020.  Not every chapter submitted mid-year milestone reports, so we will recognize additional milestone earners after the end of the year.  

These volunteers have done extraordinary levels of service!  This is especially true in 2020, when there are so many limitations on volunteer activities.  We are so impressed with how VMNs are finding safe ways to still contribute to natural resource education, citizen science, and stewardship in their communities.


Thank you to Tiffany Brown, VMN project assistant, for compiling these lists!
