[SEMCO] Public speaking opportunity for young adults on April 2 in Plymouth

[Dorie Stolley]

Please consider this for yourself or your friends, students, interns or members.

Goldenrod Foundation’s speaker series, Making Waves in Coastal Conservation, begins on January 16 at 2 p.m. at Brewster Hall in Plymouth. Every other Saturday for nine weeks, we will have guests speaking about new technologies, perspectives and efforts in the conservation of coastal waters, wildlife and habitat.

At our 6th event, on April 2, we will feature the work, research, thoughts, internships and projects of young adults in high school or college in ten-minute presentations. (Younger students may speak, too, if desired). For instance, a student could describe a senior project doing research on aquaculture or lessons learned during a summer internship on a whale watch boat.

This is an opportunity for students to speak in front of a friendly and interested audience. For the audience, it is a chance to be inspired by the dedication and efforts of young people and to learn about lesser known conservation-related projects and perspectives. We will have five talks of 10 minutes length followed by a question and answer session.

Requests to participate should be sent to me, Dorie Stolley, at dss at goldenrod.org and will be considered as they are received. Requests should include:
Student’s name and email address
Title of presentation
A paragraph-long description of topic
*If student is under 18 years of age, include a parent’s, teacher’s or guardian’s name and email address (All communications will be cc’ed to them)
