TideWater Docent training class begins
The TideWater Docents are holding a training class for new instructors on Tuesday, Feb. 21 at the Ocean Institute in Dana Point. Docents explain to beachgoers that tide-pool rocks protect many fragile creatures which might be hurt when rocks are moved.
To date, the program has trained over 150 volunteers, 60 of whom work on a regular basis at the tide pools below Heisler Park and Treasure Island. The number of sites now includes Shaw's Cove, which has been called the most threatened coastal location in the city. Others may be added this summer, Mia Davidson, Tidewater Docent coordinator said.
Docents must attend one formal training session of approximately three hours and accompany a veteran docent for a training shift in the tide pools. Information: Davidson, (949) 497-8807 or e-mail tidewaterdocentmia@earthlink.net.
