The mission of Friends of Five Rivers is to support environmental education and land preservation at Five Rivers Environmental Education Center, as well as to enhance the experience of visitors to Five Rivers and to promote the interests of the Center.
From the friendly greeter at the desk, to the instructor for the Guided School Program, to the nature intern scouring the ponds for the invasive water chestnuts – they’re all part of Friends of Five Rivers. Friends membership helps to provide volunteers and funds to support and enhance programs at Friends of Five Rivers.
They (the students) were so interested and truly enjoyed (the guide’s) enthusiasm…My students were engaged at all times. The (instructor) was wonderful with the kids. The students enjoyed catching species and figuring out what they caught. We will use the sheets as we create our own ecocolumns, but nothing will match what they did today.
Join our diverse team of volunteers and make a meaningful impact at Friends of Five Rivers! Whether you’re passionate about education, hospitality, event support, administration, or governance, there’s a rewarding role waiting for you.
