Hiking in Muir Woods

(www.VisitMuirWoods.com)

“Welcome to Muir Woods National Monument, one of the last stands of old-growth redwood forest on Earth … At Muir Woods, the National Park Service fulfills its mission of protecting our natural and cultural heritage while providing for their enjoyment by this and future generations. We invite you to explore Muir Woods and the Redwood Creek Watershed, which are part of the ‘California Floristic Province,’ one of twenty-five of the planet’s richest and most threatened reservoirs of plant and animal life.”

Monterey Whale Watching

(www.MontereyWhaleWatching.com)

“Monterey Whale Watching, formerly Monterey Sport Fishing and Whale Cruises, has been in the cruise business for over 30 years. We are the Monterey Bay’s leading company in narrated ocean and bay tours, specializing in natural history and biology of marine wildlife, especially whales! Our whale watching trips run year-round and are fully narrated by marine biologists/naturalists, all with 10 or more years experience on the Monterey Bay. During our 2 1/2 to 3 hour trips, we provide you with a unique opportunity to view the diverse inhabitants of the Monterey Bay.”

Acterra’s mission is “to create local solutions that foster a healthy natural environment.” By volunteering with them, we will take on an active role in the future of our environment. Volunteering is a wonderful and rewarding experience, and we’d like to encourage everyone (members or not) to take advantage of this opportunity.

The mission of the Rainforest Alliance is to protect ecosystems and the people and wildlife that depend on them by transforming land-use practices, business practices and consumer behavior … Through Adopt-A-Rainforest, individuals, school groups and other organizations contribute funding to small conservation groups in tropical countries that work to stop rainforest destruction. Donations to the Adopt-A-Rainforest projects support the purchase and sustainable management of tropical forest lands.”
