2023 January – Class of 2022 TMN “Ted Talks”

Lisa Travis, 2018 – For January, instead of one speaker, we have four! For our final class in 2022, Members-in-training had the opportunity to present a five-to-ten-minute “Ted Talk” on any topic from the Texas Master Naturalist curriculum. Sixteen members presented on a wide variety of topics, and each did an excellent job. Everyone in attendance agreed that it was a huge success. Four members have agreed to reprise their presentations for the chapter.
