Led by volunteer naturalist and preserve leader, Jeff Wright. Jeff is enthralled by protecting habitat and species. Being called a Bird Brain or a Tree Hugger are no longer insults. He is the President of the Board of Directors of the Old Growth Forest Network, a Virginia Master Naturalist, President of the Friends of Dragon Run, and a Kayak Paddle Tour Guide. Staying active, acknowledging nature, and paying forward to protect habitat make Jeff tick. He has both a sense of humor and a sense of purpose.
