CRESLI volunteers are an invaluable
resource and participate in all of our activities, including marine
mammal research expeditions and cruises, data collection and public
education programs. Volunteers receive hands-on training and experience
from CRESLI's professional staff while participating in challenging and
rewarding activities.
As you know, volunteers for all CRESLI
activities must undergo training by CRESLI scientists.
This summer (2010), the Viking Fleet will be sailing whale
watch trips 5 days per week (Wednesdays through Sundays) and
CRESLI has enlisted the assistance of scientists and
volunteers from the Riverhead Foundation to work with CRESLI
scientists and volunteersthroughout the summer.This opportunityto work together to provide a rich educational
experience to the public and to gather much needed data is
welcomed by all involved.
The whale watch training (by CRESLI and
Riverhead Foundation scientists) will take place onthe dates listed below at Dowling College, Kramer
Science Center, room 027 (in the basement), or the loft at
the Riverhead Foundation from 12:30 PMthrough 3:30 PM. If you wish to volunteer for
