The health and safety of you, other volunteers, and the general public is most important at this time. As a result, ambassadors will not be attending any public events or markets until it is safe for us to gather together in a group setting. Also, both the Orillia and Barrie farmer's markets are closed to the public and many public events are cancelled due the pandemic.
Staff and committees are in the works of planning ways to engage the public during this time. Some of the ideas suggested provide opportunities for Ambassadors to spread awareness of local land conservation.
Some of these suggestions include:
- Webinars over Zoom with guest speakers presenting on a specific topic
- Ambassadors could open up the webinar with a small introduction to the Conservancy, introduce the guest speaker, and manage the chat box
- Ambassadors could welcome trail users to different nature reserves, from a distance and wearing a mask
The above suggestions are subject to change and I will keep you updated as soon as we have more details.
If you have any ideas or feedback about the above items please let me know.
