Volunteer Day 15/01/2025

15 January | 8:30 AM - 2:00 PM

Join us to for more outdoor activities

Dear Amazing Volunteers,
Thank you for making last week’s volunteering such a success! A team of 8 joined the Predator Free trappers to install traps and bait stations, creating a fantastic learning experience. If you missed out, don’t worry—join us this week at 8:30 AM for another chance to get involved!

For those who prefer a different type of activity, you can join the seasonal bird count crew starting at 9:00 AM. This important task helps us measure the success of our program and offers a more relaxed outdoor experience.

No matter which activity you choose, please come prepared with:

  • Sturdy boots and a hat
  • A backpack with sunscreen, water, and snacks

Not keen on bush activities? We always need help with depot maintenance, including:

  • Cleaning gutters
    Trimming overhanging trees and bushes
    Restoring surrounding vegetation
    Your contributions here play a vital role in improving water quality and maintaining a sustainable environment for the depot.

When and Where:

  • Trap Installation: 8:30 AM
  • Bird Count or Depot Maintenance: 9:00 AM
  • Location: 43 Matauwhi Road (RLT Depot)

Additionally, we’ll soon be offering training for volunteers interested in servicing a trap line on an ongoing basis. This involves a monthly 2–3-hour activity at a time that works best for you. Stay tuned for more details about our informational training session later this month (date to be confirmed).

We look forward to seeing you this Wednesday for another rewarding day of volunteering!

Sunny regards,
The RLT Team
