New NWAEP Board Members

On March 19^th NWAEP held an annual meeting in Seattle. At this meeting we welcomed Stephen Gerritson and Peter Masson to our board of directors. Aron Borok and Rona Spellecacy were both reelected for second terms. Kristin Duin, Jeff Norville, and Keith Bellingham complete our existing board (they all have one more year in their terms).

We would like to express our appreciation to departing board members Carol Snead and Molly Brown. Both of them will remain active in organizing workshops and membership activities.

The National Audubon Society is pleased to invite applications for the new TogetherGreen Conservation Leadership Program.

The goals of the program are to nurture conservation leaders, achieve conservation results, and engage millions of Americans in conservation action. Over the next five years, TogetherGreen will support a series of national conservation initiatives, including the Conservation Leadership Program, that support these goals and the underlying notion that everyone can make a difference.
