Volunteer Day: Wood Duck Box Building

Enjoy helping the community? Passionate about nature and contributing to conservation efforts? We have just the volunteer opportunity for you! On Friday, February 7th, we will be hosting a volunteer day to assemble nesting boxes for wood ducks – drop in any time between 3 PM and 7 PM to help out with building. These boxes will be installed around the EEC and other City of Elkhart properties later in the year to give breeding Wood Duck pairs more suitable locations to raise young during the nesting season. In addition to helping wood ducks around the city, volunteers will also gain tips on building, maintaining, and installing nest boxes if they ever choose to implement them on their own property!
