Our Tribe’s Fortune 250 Hours – Lisa Runyon

Lisa Runyon, 2015 – I’ve stayed involved in BPTMN because our chapter does two things well. First, our chapter excels in providing quality advanced training opportunities including the speakers at our monthly meetings. They have raised my awareness and inspired me in so many ways. Because of advanced training, I continue to grow as a naturalist. Secondly, our chapter does a great job of providing a wide variety of volunteer opportunities to choose from.

Tasha Patterson, 2020 and 2021 Class Representative – I also do first Saturday trail guiding at Blackland Prairie Raptor Center. My favorite thing about being a part of the BPTMN is that every single person I have encountered is willing to share their knowledge and passion to help me grow in my pursuits.

Our Tribe’s Fortune 250 Hours – Andy Hudson

Andy Hudson, 2018 – I was in Class 2018. People can usually find me serving out at Erwin Park or the 2 newer green spaces at Gray Branch and McKinney Greens. I live in McKinney, so that keeps me enjoying the fellowship and lively personalities of our Blackland Prairie chapter.
