DOCENT GRADUATES

By John Allen

Each year the Friends of Edgewood puts on a training program to prepare new docents to lead the public on wildflower walks at the preserve during the months of March, April, May and June. Our training this year started in February and consisted of six classroom sessions and six field trips ending in April.

These training sessions were presented by experts on Edgewood Park and Natural Preserve. They were Ken Himes, Paul Heiple, Bob Buell and Toni Corelli. Each of these presenters covered material designed to help the new docents become familiar with the park.

16 people completed the training in 2005 and are already leading walks. They are: Joe Barile, Susan Crocker, Orrin Cross, Ted Cruze, Craig Cummings, Carolyn Dorsch, Lee Gallagher, Fran Naylor, Judy Pugh, Marianne Schonfisch, Michael Tu, Dawn Van Seggen, Trevlyn Williams, Mary Wilson, Michael Yantos and Jan Yelland. The time and considerable effort expended by the class is greatly appreciated.
