Assist in manning the Chapter’s booth during the Teacher’s Conference at Region 9.  Contact Lynn Seman if you wish to participate at rlynnseman@gmail.com.

We will have a booth, table set up outside the classroom session which will be set up all day from about 8:00am to 4:00pm.
You can sign up to stay at the booth and talk to people as they walk by the room, and/or you can help with the 75 minutes session.  Anyone who wants to speak during the session on a topic related to the summary below, let Lynn know.  Her plan is to give an overview and then set up stations on the following community science topics and then have attendees go from one station to the next and discuss with TMN members the specifics of each of these projects.
The overview will last approximately 30 minutes, then they can spend about 3 to 5 minutes at each of the following:
1.  General Benefits of Nature to mental/physical well being
2.  Monarch Butterfly tagging/community science project
3.  Texas Stream Team – water testing project
4.  Quail Study
5.  Pollen trackers – Nature’s Notebook
