Get outdoors, enjoy the sights and smells of spring and celebrate National Wildlife Week, April 21-29! Whatever your age or interest, National Wildlife Federation will help you connect with nature right in your own neighborhood. Here’s how:
Serving the community: Youth Service America and National Wildlife Federation are partnering together to help young people ages 11 to 18 make a difference in their communities. Through environmental service projects on National and Global Youth Service Day, April 20-22, teens will address global warming, undertake habitat restoration and become more aware of the ecology in their own areas. Tips and suggestions are available online at www.ysa.org/nysd and www.nwf.org/nationalwildlifeweek.
Observing wildlife: The National Wildlife Watch will involve everyone from children, parents and caregivers, grandparents and mentors to schools, outdoor and sporting groups and others. Participants will download a list of wildlife and natural phenomena to observe in their backyards, neighborhoods, communities and other special places. They will then report back by posting their findings on the National Wildlife Week website. Participants also will be challenged to watch for designated endangered species in their locale.
National Wildlife Week is sponsored annually by National Wildlife Federation, America’s conservation organization dedicated to protecting wildlife for our children’s future. For more information, visit www.nwf.org/nationalwildlifeweek or e-mail nationalwildlifeweek@nwf.org.
