If you are still working on your certification as a Texas Waters Specialist, you can pick up 2 hours of training time by attending the Online class coming up on Monday, January 22.

Let me know if any questions. Hope to see you there.
You may also be interested in attending an Online lecture about Bats coming up on January 25. Sorry, but will NOT count toward your Waters Specialist cert, but is a great training opportunity if you are accumulating advanced training hours (for TMNs or Student Ambassadors) or just interested in the topic. Diana Foss, formerly with Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, is the presenter for this great presentation hosted by The Woodlands G.R.E.E.N. beginning at 7pm on the 25th.
