M.O.U. Youth Mentorship Program |
The MOU has a Youth Mentorship Program (YMP) with many volunteers. A YMP volunteer will come to your school or other organization and give a presentation with slides of birds and take the group on a field trip, all at NO CHARGE. This can be done in either one or two visits.
If interested, contact the YMP volunteer on the list below who lives nearest you. Note, counties are in bold type. Those volunteers with a number in front of their names have a kit with binoculars, field guides, bird slides, and a spotting scope. A volunteer without a kit can borrow one.
If you have questions, contact the YMP coordinator, Kevin D. Smith , at 651-437-5304.
Volunteers, please download the PDF form to submit to Kevin D. Smith after your presentations.
