Wolf Trap First-Time Campers Program offers Birding
Each spring and fall Wolf Trap National Park for the Performing Arts hosts two campouts for Fairfax County 5th and 6th grade students sponsored by Friends of Wolf Trap. The campouts give young people an opportunity to develop meaningful connections to the natural world, learn outdoor skills, make new friends, and have fun.
Volunteer: Bird-safe Buildings

If you have expertise in architecture, city planning or bird-safe building measures, the Advocacy Committee would like to hear from you.

Jim is only the second person from ASNV to receive this award. He is a naturalist, who began the Occoquan Monitoring Program 30 years ago after retiring from foreign service.
