Care about beaches? Good with people? Sign up to be a volunteer beach naturalist at a Seattle-area beach this summer. An orientation session for the program will be held Tuesday evening, April 15, 6:30-8:00 PM, at the Seattle Aquarium.

Naturalists will receive training from marine and interpretative experts on four weekday evenings (April 29 and May 6, 14 and 20) and three weekend days (Sunday, May 4; Saturday, May 10 and Sunday, May 18). Once trained, volunteers spend three summer weekend days educating visitors about beach ecology and beach etiquette at Constellation Park (Alki), Lincoln Park, Golden Gardens, Carkeek Park, Olympic Sculpture Park Beach, Seahurst Park, Des Moines Beach Park, and Richmond Beach. To sign up and for more information, contact Charlotte Spang 206-245-0143, at The Seattle Aquarium.
