Cultural Monitoring Workshop

Cultural Monitoring Workshop to be held in Portola on November 19 –  20.

Through recent project work on the Beckwourth Peak Trail, it has come to our attention that there is a need for local tribal community members to be trained as Cultural Monitors for a variety of projects in our area. Cultural Monitoring Workshops are not often held in our region and thus require significant travel expenses to attend. Therefore Sierra Nevada Conservancy (SNC), Southern Sierra Miwuk Nation and Sierra Buttes Trail Stewardship have partnered to host a workshop in Portola that will be facilitated by Professor John Pryor of Fresno State University and Waylon Coats of SNC and Southern Sierra Miwuk Nation. The workshop will be free to all participants with a maximum attendance capacity of 50 and registration outreach will target local tribes, cultural groups, and community members.

If interested in participating please register by November 14th at https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0e45afae2ca4fbc52-portola or by calling or emailing Trinity– [email protected], 530-298-9118.
