Volunteer Activities

The Mt. Diablo Audubon Society operates entirely on the power of its volunteers.
This page is dedicated to recognizing and thanking those volunteers for their time and talents.
THANK YOU!!!

Volunteers are needed to help in enhancing the display board of exhibits that MDAS presents during outreach events. MDAS members who have special artistic talents are especially invited to help.

MDAS members are strongly encouraged to participate in future community events to share with the public valuable information on the conservation of birds and their habitats. Please sign-up for upcoming events that are regularly announced during the MDAS membership meetings every first Thursday of the month. Please contact Moses de los Reyes, Volunteer Coordinator, at (925) 755-3734 or at Moses_inc@comcast.net for detailed information on how to sign-up for upcoming events.

Your continued valuable participation is much appreciated.

MDAS volunteers will be actively participating in the educational community outreach. MDAS members are encouraged to participate. Please contact Moses de los Reyes, Volunteer Coordinator at (925) 755-3734 or email Moses_inc@comcast.net.

MDAS has been an active participant to the SF Flyway Festival for many years. The Festival is the only 3-day birding festival in the San Francisco Bay area and its audience has grown steadily over the last few years. The indoor activities are on Mare Island and many of the Festival tours leave from the parking lot in front of the building. The tours allow the guests to experience the interesting features of various areas on Mare Island that are not usually accessible to the general public. Our strong participation in the Flyway Festival is an excellent outreach activity that encourages the public to get involved in the conservation of birds and their valuable habitats - and it's Fun!

Volunteers are needed to talk to visitors during a two-hour shift, and to award prizes to children who can identify the species of bird who built one of the nests on display. (Almost all can pick out the Hummingbird nest!)
