Meetings
Grays Harbor Audubon Society holds chapter meetings for members, friends and the public on the first Sunday of the following months: February, April, June, October and December at the Hoquiam Timberland Library.
Join us Sunday, December 1, 2024 Meeting at Hoquiam Library at 1:30 p.m.
Hear Alysa Adams, Interpretive Ranger with Washington State Parks, as she shares stories of Mount St. Helens. She’ll briefly cover the 1980 eruption, and transition into the landscape transformation and flora/fauna resiliency post-eruption. You’ll learn about the important characters that played a remarkable role in life after the blast and get a glimpse into the world of birds within the National Volcanic Monument and nearby state park.
Alysa has worked with Washington State Parks and Recreation commission for over a decade, with the last 9 years running the Mount St. Helens Visitor Center. She’s passionate about connecting people to nature, and facilitating meaningful memories in a heartwarming, fun, and silly environment. She loves youth programming and is dedicated to inspiring a sense of stewardship and inclusivity in future generations. When not giving ranger talks, you’ll find Alysa romping in the woods with her dog Ember, living close to the land in her partially off-grid cabin, and on the pursuit to intimately know the plants and wildlife she coexists with. |
