CAMN Monthly Chapter Meetings

CAMN October Chapter Meeting

Wednesday, October 29  |  6:30 – 8 PM

Please note: This month’s meeting is being held on the 5th Wednesday, rather than the regular 4th Wednesday. There will be no November CAMN Chapter meeting, but please watch for details about an end-of-year celebration to take place in early December. The tentative date is Wednesday, December 10.

Our meetings are free and open to the public.

We welcome everyone to join us on Zoom to share fun nature moments, catch up on the latest Chapter news & events, and hear from Hannah Pickens about the natural and cultural history of Enchanted Rock State Natural Area and how Master Naturalists can best assist TPWD’s mission to preserve these precious resources.

Our presenter, Hannah Pickens, graduated magna cum laude from the University of Portland with a B.S. in Environmental Science and a concentration in Biology in 2022. During college she worked as a Teaching Assistant for biology, chemistry, and botany labs. She also worked as an intern for TPWD in 2021. After graduating, she served as a Park Ranger for the City of Portland, focusing on city code enforcement related to parks and recreation properties.

Hannah currently serves as the interpretive ranger and natural resource specialist at Enchanted Rock State Natural Area in Fredericksburg, Texas. She has held these positions at The Rock, as served as volunteer coordinator, since August of 2024. During this time she has worked extensively with geologists, research scientists, park staff, and resource specialists to gain a comprehensive understanding of the natural resources of the site and to provide regular educational programming about these topics.

Having grown up just down the road in Wimberley, Hannah is excited to work with Texas Master Naturalists, helping them cultivate the next generation of conservationists in the Hill Country.

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.
