Newport Bay Conservancy is taking on an increasing breadth and scale of activities and is looking for Board Members who can help plan, organize, market, etc. those programs that are near and dear to our mission of protecting and preserving the Upper Newport Bay.

Education programs are increasing in number, with more K through 12 participants
than ever. We are being asked to lead habitat restoration projects in the saltmarsh, on
the bluffs, and in Big Canyon. Fortunately our numbers of active, trained volunteers
is also increasing, giving us the “feet on the ground” capacity to take on these
responsibilities. There are also things we want to see moved forward to improve
community resources around the Bay which require us to be advocating and working
proactively with our partner agencies. As an example, we are working with OC
Parks to design and install new interpretive signs along the trails within the Nature
Preserve, and hope to start work with State Fish & Wildlife on similar new signage
along Back Bay Drive. At the same time we have been actively opposing the State’s
plan to begin levying a charge for users of the Big Canyon parking lot and loop trail.
We are also talking with the City to try to find a solution to the problem of trash in
the Bay. We do not support their proposal to install a trash collection device within
the Bay itself and are engaged in discussions to find a solution which can be placed
in the San Diego creek, the main source of trash and dead vegetation.
All of this means we need more people who would like to get directly involved in
helping us fulfill our mission to preserve and protect the Bay both at a Conservancy-wide
level by serving on our Board, and on the different committees which focus on
particular aspects of our work, especially marketing, fundraising and advocacy.
