As a chapter, these projects are typically the most numerous. These projects include planting native trees, shrubs and plants, collecting and processing seeds from native plants, and removing weeds. They can be close to Pocatello at Sacajawea Park, Edson Fichter, Century Heights, or a little drive from Pocatello at Sterling WMA, Georgetown WMA or near Holbrook. There are always plenty of holes to dig!

These projects are very fun and often very rewarding projects centered around spreading the word and enjoyment of our natural world around us. There are several projects year round that involve staffing booths, interacting with members of the public, teaching a class or leading tours. Some examples of these projects include planning and setup at the Portneuf Environmental Fair or leading birding tours for members of the public.

These projects are for the number crunchers! These types of projects occur year round and can involve collecting data, surveying plants and animals, taking population counts and entering data. Some examples of these projects include grouse lek surveys, plant documentation and surveys, shore bird and waterfowl counts, etc.

These projects are great for those that like a little individuality to their service projects. The projects can involve checking in on access sites, picking up trash, reporting conditions and tending to monofilament line collection stations. Painting the gate at Edson Fichter Park (pictured left) is a great example of recreation managment. There are always plenty of opportunities to help keep our recreation locations looking top notch!

These projects typically occur during the warmer months around southeast Idaho. This opportunity is a great way to engage the public while their involved in one of the most popular recreation activities in the area: fishing! Examples of this may be helping out at the Take Me Fishing Trailer stationed at a local fishing hole, or perhaps taking angler surveys at one of the local access points. No matter the opportunity, you're bound to have a reel-y good time!

Don't like digging holes or pulling weeds? Perhaps you need a project for those rainy or cold days? There are typically plenty of opportunities for administrative duties with our partners, from helping out with cataloguing species from field surveys or entering data. These projects are rewarding in thier own way!

Do you have special insight or knowledge that could be useful to advisory boards? This could be a great place to shine and help folks making important management decisions. These opportunities are less common, but still important and rewarding!
