About this Event
Now in its 19th year, NV Naturalists can be found across the valley engaging in projects that benefit the community!
The NV Naturalist Program is delivered using a hybrid model. Participants attend in-person classes and field trips. However, they also have the option of attending the classroom lectures via Zoom. Field trips are delivered in-person only.
This session begins on October 14th and continues through November 18th.
Classes are held on Mondays and Wednesdays from 6pm - 9pm at the University of NV Extension southern area campus: 8050 Paradise Rd., Las Vegas, NV 89123; and the field trips are on Saturdays at various times and locations.
The broad scope curriculum focuses on the natural resources found in southern NV.
Topics this session include: Nevada History; birds, bats, bees and butterflies; invasive plants; archaeology; conservation biology; southern NV soils, and more.
Join us as we delve into NV History at the Las Vegas Mormon Fort State Park; discover ancient civilizations at the Los City Museum; go on a birding "expedition" at the Henderson Bird Viewing Preserve, and more.
Our class volunteer opportunity this session is to participate in a Green-Up at the Warm Springs Natural Area.
The cost to register is $99 a person. Or, two people registering together for only $150. This registration fee covers the cost of all books, materials, entrance fees, field trip transportation from Extension, and some refreshments.
