“Everyone is a Citizen Scientist"

Vermilion Community College to host a Nature Night entitled, "Everyone is a Citizen Scientist"

Wednesday, July 8 from 7:00 p.m.
Vermilion Community College, CL 104

Bring your observational skills and ability to learn to this presentation where naturalist Bill Tefft and other everyday people will open the door to citizen science for you. Does the word "science"
sound a little scary or does it present the potential for adventure and making positive contributions.

Citizen science is the general term being applied to what happens when people investigate the cultural and natural history of their areas and then report there findings. You will discover the many projects already available and the growing interest in groups like the Minnesota Master Naturalists and the Ely Field Naturalists.
