This spring, TTDC welcomes a new board member in the at-large position: Jason Brune. Jason serves as the Senior Lands Manager at CIRI and we are looking forward to the energy and ideas that he will bring to the TTCD Board of Directors. TTDC also welcomes new employee John Hagen, who joined TTDC in March as the Conservation Technician.
April brought a steady rhythm of activity for TTCD as programs ramped up for the season ahead. Tebughna students started indoor seedlings and took part in field trips exploring Native Alaskan culture, local ecosystems, and owls! Our Habitat Monitoring & Restoration team welcomed two new staff members and the Tyonek Garden is starting to thaw in welcome of spring (and summer)!
It’s officially spring, though you wouldn’t know it by the cool temperatures we have been getting for most of this month! Spring for TTCD is a flurry of activity. We are getting ready to start seedlings with the Tebughna School, hire Youth Garden Interns, deliver more salmon to more Tyonek households, and prep for our first habitat monitoring and restoration projects of the summer, including Pike Camp!
