AAMN Schedule for Class 25
-
The application submission deadline for the Fall 2009 session is August 20, 2009. Seating is limited.
The Class 25 training session will start on Thursday, September 10, 2009. Classes will meet every Thursday through November 5, 2009 from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM. The first class will meet in the Auld House at the San Antonio Botanical Garden. Other classes will meet either at the San Antonio Botanical Garden or at the Bexar County office of the Texas AgriLife Extension Service (Texas Cooperative Extension). Besides meeting on Thursdays, there are also four scheduled field trips, three on Saturdays and one on a Friday.
To graduate, all students should plan to attend all the dates listed for a total of 40 hours, including at least two of the four field trips. Graduation is on Saturday, November 7, 2009.
The AAMN training sessions occur twice a year: one session in the spring and one session in the fall. We usually try to accommodate various work schedules by offering the training sessions at two different times: the spring sessions are at night and the fall sessions are in the afternoon.
Applicants accepted into the training session will need to pay $125.00 tuition. This will pay for the Texas Master Naturalist Handbook, a name badge, the chapter newsletter, and other needed supplies. Scholarships are available. If using postal mail, do not send the tuition in with your application. For more details, go to the join page.
This schedule may be subject to change due to unexpected commitments. Please check with the instructor before the end of each class for any schedule changes.
