It’s time for the Texas Master Naturalist 17th Annual Meeting! This event will be hosted at La Torretta Lake Resort and Spa in Montgomery, Texas. Situated along the shores of Lake Conroe, this year’s meeting location will offer scenic views, close proximity to local, state, and even national wildlife areas and nature centers, along with a grand conference center, award winning amenities, and critically acclaimed banquet services. This year’s Annual Meeting will take place October 21st, 22nd, and 23rd, 2016.
The Annual Meeting provides an opportunity for Texas Master Naturalist volunteers from around the state to gather, participate in hands-on education seminars, and receive all of their Advanced Training requirements for the year within one weekend. It’s also an opportunity for program participants and supporters to network, share new ideas/projects, and to learn from different chapters from different regions of the state. We are pleased to extend and invitation to ALL Texas Master Naturalist Program volunteers, along with all other program affiliates. This includes those certified volunteers, those still in training program administrators and advisors of local chapters, and your local chapter partners, sponsors, and special guests. This year’s gathering has several chapter enhancement and Advanced Training topics to choose from. Our social times, Chapter Project Fair showcase and Round Table discussions will offer great opportunities to meet your fellow Texas Master Naturalist peers from our 46 chapters across the state and share new ideas from the past year. Hear what projects your peers are contributing their volunteer time towards and make new acquaintances all at the same time. The Texas Master Naturalist Store and other surprises are also on the agenda. So, come out for a weekend filled with fun, fellowship, and learning on the edge of the East Texas pineywoods.
