Dear Volunteers, As I look forward to the future events and projects to come in the new year, I reflect on all that I have witnessed at the Effie Yeaw Nature Center. The countless moments of gratitude and thanks I am able to share. The contribution of volunteer service that span a variety of roles and demonstrate a love of place, inspiration, and joy. How the moment I stepped into my role I felt connected and supported by the actions of our dedicated team of volunteers and staff. Cheers to you and me and all of us for continuing Effie's mission of connecting people to nature to share a sense of wonder, joy, and urgency to preserve and protect the resources of the American River Parkway. Thank you for your continued support and Happy New Year! Jacqueline Ramirez Volunteer Coordinator (916) 489-4918 [email protected]
