Birds & Bees of the Pinnacles

 
 

Chris Symons has been working with the National Park Service since 2018, but has been interested in Environmental Education since he was a child. Chris studied Environmental Science, Journalism, and Education at Michigan State University, and received his Eagle Scout rank in the Boy Scouts of America building a rain garden project that is still in operation today. While he spends his days in a Ranger's flat hat talking about the birds and bees of Pinnacles, he also enjoys reading, boating, discovering new crafts and hobbies, and (poorly) playing his mandolin.

  • Who can be District Governor?
  • How is the District Governor selected?
  • What roles does the District Governor have in the years before and after the DG year?
  • What is the expected time commitment?
  • Is there a financial commitment?
  • What resources does the District and Rotary International provide to assist the District Governor?
