2025 Field Guide Training
Six Monday Sessions: March 17th, March 24th, March 31st & April 7th, 14th & 28th, 9am-2pm plus an opportunity to shadow a veteran guide on a walk during the week of April 21st-25th.
All sessions will include multiple presentations and a walk through a salt marsh and over Wing Island to Cape Cod Bay (i.e., dress appropriately and wear waterproof boots). During the school vacation week, April 21st-25th, guides will have an opportunity to shadow a veteran guide leading one of the daily scheduled family walks.
New guides will learn about the natural history of Cape Cod in general, and the Stony Brook Valley and Wing Island in Brewster in particular, as well as how to lead walks and share information with visitors. Veteran guides are invited to participate to review information and to contribute knowledge and experience to the sessions as all guides prepare for the new season of leading walks of school groups and families throughout the spring, summer and fall.
Registration open February 3rd. To enroll in the course please call 508.896.3867 x121
