SAVE THE DATE for CAMN’s End-of-Year Party ��

Wednesday, December 10th  |  6 – 9 PM
Hosted at Huffman Hall, St. Matthew’s Episcopal Church

4121 Steck Ave, Austin, TX 7875

Join us for the 2025 End-of-Year celebration, Fall Class graduation, Executive Officer elections, collect your TMN Awards, and more!  We will have our traditional Giving Tables, a potluck dinner,  and plenty of photos and stories from the year to share.

This event is free and open to ANYONE who wishes to attend: members, friends, family, and our community who just want to celebrate together and see what the Texas Master Naturalist program is all about!

This will be a POTLUCK Party, so please bring a dish to share. A serving utensil and note card of ingredients is appreciated.  

CAMN will provide tea and water.

Plates, silverware, and napkins will be available–but–let’s GO GREEN and if you can, bring you own reusable plate, utensils, napkin, mug and other drinkware!

We will also have a GIVING Table

This is a table to which you can bring – to give away – books, native seeds & plants, and other items your fellow Naturalists might enjoy!  This is not an “exchange” in that, you do not have to contribute in order to receive from the table – everything is freely given, so give and take as you wish!

There will also be a slideshow celebrating all things “CAMN” in 2025 (if you would like to contribute photos, please send to communications@camn.org), we will hold the election of Executive Officers, and celebrate the Fall Class of 2025 GRADUATION! 

Executive Officer Elections for 2026:

CAMN Members will vote on the Executive Officer candidates for 2026 during this December event.  There will be no option to vote or attend the event virtually, you must be present in person to vote.  These are entirely volunteer positions held for up to one year at a time.

Current candidate list for 2026

Thank you to our supporters

Please consider shopping with the vendors who donated items to our silent auction in March! We really appreciate their support in our fundraising efforts and many of them are local businesses.

The money raised by the silent auction goes toward education and outreach opportunities within our community. It also helps pay for our speakers and provide scholarships for Master Naturalist trainees who may need financial assistance.

You can also provide financial support by donating through Amplify Austin at any time.

Previous Chapter Meeting Recordings/Presentations

Note: Recordings of previous chapter meetings do not count for Advanced Training (AT). The State of Texas requires the opportunity for Q&A and discussion for all AT and only live meetings allows for this.
