Earth Day 2007 – The refuge invites visitors to come celebrate Earth Day with us. Special handouts and videos will be available in the visitor center April 21 and 22. A Saturday afternoon walk will focus on wildlife and the impact of litter.

International Migratory Bird Day – Celebrate birds and their migration routes by visiting the refuge. Displays and handouts will be featured in the visitor center the week of May 12. Join volunteers on a Sunday morning bird walk to see who's new coming through the refuge and discuss the role of refuges on the flyways.

Photo Wall – We now host a display area in the visitor center where local photographers have the opportunity to display their pictures. We ask the wildlife shown be common to the Eastern Shore and the photos taken on a wildlife refuge. We have 8"x10" frames for loan to the artist for the display.

Interns – We are always looking for a few good college interns to help us provide interpretive programs and do general tasks around the refuge. This is a great opportunity for recent college graduates or juniors and seniors in college to get something on a resume. Interns work as volunteers for the refuge for 12 week periods. They get onsite housing and a subsistence allowance of $120 per week, courtesy of CNHA. Duties include staffing the visitor center, working on interpretive displays and programs, minor grounds upkeep, and miscellaneous administrative duties.

Volunteers – Volunteers are needed to help run the visitor center. Shifts are 4 or 8 hours, at least once a month. Help is needed year round but especially in March and November/December. For information about any of these activities, please contact outdoor recreation planner Yvonne Schultz at yvonne_schultz@fws.gov for more information.
