The Boone’s Lick chapter, covering Boone County and mid-Missouri, will hold their annual core training for new volunteers beginning March 5, ending with graduation on May 14.

Classes will mostly be on Thursday evenings and Saturday mornings.

Registration for the full course is open until March 2.

to register for the full course and see program details ( https://pears.io//events/mu/1805/ )


We know this is a big commitment, and you may have questions and want more details.

To that end, there will be a FREE information session held on February 19, 6:00 to 8:00 p.m., at the MU Extension office in Boone County.

Registration for that one-evening program is separate from the course registration (see link below).

Note: you do not have to be registered for the full course to attend the February 19 session. Similarly, attending the information session is not required.

*In the event of inclement weather on February 19, the session may be moved online. Notifications will be sent out via email and text (if we have your cell number) 24 hours in advance.

    The Information Session will include:
  • Full course schedule details
  • The Master Naturalist certification process
  • The range of volunteer opportunities (with a photo slide show)
  • Expectations and requirements for the training, and for certified volunteers
  • How we stay sharp with advanced trainings
  • Meet current Master Naturalist volunteers
