The Friends' three goals are stewardship, education and acquisition. They maintain parks and build trails, develop nature programs and acquire natural areas. It's fun because we get things done. I certainly have made good friends. She and other volunteers were out in the February wind and rain, raking ditches at Camano Island State Park.
Maintenance is part of stewardship.
Now it looks like there were none at all. Beyond, eagles soared over dancing whitecaps on Saratoga Passage. I like giving back to nature what it's given me. I couldn't think of anything else I'd rather do in volunteering right now. We've been out in everything from pouring rain to sunshine.
