About
Sandy Creek Nature Center is always looking for help caring for reptiles, amphibians, fish and other aquatic animals. This is an opportunity to learn basic herpetological and aquatic animal care or expand on experience and knowledge you may already have in this field.
(Note: Although there is a waitlist, spots typically open up seasonally. This page will always show a waitlist since "registered" volunteers also include all prior volunteers as well.)
Please email Blake Welch, the organizer, blake.welch@accgov.com with any questions regarding registration.
