We started our orientation with a little discussion about urban forestry and what it means for Hamilton, and then got down to the details of the project. Finally, we headed outside to go through data collection. Our new volunteers asked lots of great questions and made some excellent suggestions! We are looking forward to working with this wonderful, enthusiastic group.
Data collection begins this week-see the Get Involved page for the latest schedule. We are also hosting another orientation session on Saturday June 14th from 10am-12pm at Churchill Park. We will be meeting in front of the lawn bowling club on Cline Ave N. Anyone is welcome to attend.If you aren't involved yet, it's not too late! Send us an email at treescount2014@gmail.com for more information. You don't have to attend an orientation-we can provide on-site training as well.
This project would not be possible without the hard work of our volunteers, so thanks for making a difference in your community!
