September 2010
Dear SCA Friend,
This summer, SCA volunteers studied and protected thousands of wild creatures, from big-eared bats to pelicans.
But our vounteers don't slow down in the low season. You can help us do the work that can't take place during the crowded summer months. Together we'll train a new generation of conservation leaders. The bats and pelicans – and everyone who enjoys our parks – will appreciate it.
--Deb Keller, Editor
