Dave’s Wish List
Dave is seeking to add to his arsenal of naturalist equipment, and accepts monetary donations. All ‘crowd-funded’ equipment will be used to enrich Dave’s free public nature education activities.
To enjoy the equipment you help provide, just join Dave on one of his free activities. When a new “education toy” is acquired with donations, look for a notice in the E-newsletter.
My webmasters said, “Dave, you provide such environmental enrichment for the community, please accept donations.”
View my Wish List below and keep my webmasters happy by making a donation!
Thank you - Dave Sutherland
