Current Volunteer Opportunities Monofilament Recycling Bins
this spring and summer, we'll be placing several monofilament recycling bins at local marinas and tackle shops. We can use help with this project, both in getting the bins installed and monitoring them (removing fishing line and filling out a short data sheet) throughout the summer and fall. E-mail jen@blueoceansociety.org for details.
Volunteer Night!
We have monthly (usually) Volunteer Nights scheduled for 2 hours on a weeknight at our office. Projects have included collating newsletters, organizing merchandise, and helping to make photo note cards (which we use as a fundraiser). No training is needed, and it's a great way to meet our scientists/educators and learn more about what we do, while hanging out with others who care about the marine environment! If you might be interested, email jen@blueoceansociety.org and we'll contact you when the next one is scheduled!
