A couple of things to note about your shift:

  1. Your responsibilities as a docent are simply to say hello and answer any basic questions people may have.

  2. It is not your responsibility to enforce any additional rules or regulations

  3. Plan to park at the end of Cocopah drive and walk-in unless otherwise notified, directions can be found below.*
    *The east side of the preserve can also be accessed via Antone Road if parking is not available at Cocopah

  4. Bring comfortable clothes, sun protection and wear your mask. If it is raining or rain is ongoing no need to show up.

  5. There are no restrooms on the preserve, please keep this in mind and plan accordingly.
