Sierra
Club Local Group Monthly Education Programs provide
both our members and the public with speakers who share their
experiences about the outdoors, the environment and interesting
places they have visited. Presentations are provided by people
who have credentials, experiences, allowing the audience to get
their questions answered.
Whether
you have an interest in a topic or if you just want to find out more
about our local Sierra Club group, just stop by. No reservations
are needed and best of all, there is no cost or obligation required
to attend. Our programs are held on the third Monday of each month
(Sept - May). Use the link provided to find out more information
or directions.
These
presentations are designed to provides groups with trained speakers
who present facts about current issues at a location that is convienent
to your group. Such a group could be neighbors, friends, church group,
or an organization. We also have people who can help community governmental
bodies develop and implement plans as part of the Cool
Cities program that is evolving throughout the country.
Currently,
our presentations are specific to understanding and addressing Global
Warming and Conservation. All you need to do is contact us and let
us know what topic your group would like to learn about and we will
work with you to schedule the speaker and the time. Use link to find
