The common link? 年轻时,他们花时间在亚利桑那-索诺拉网上买球十大正规平台学习自然历史.


长期以来,年轻人在网上买球十大正规平台中占有重要地位. In Pebbles in Our Shoes, William H. (�Bill�) Carr talked about early work at the Museum, teaching us who forged the Museum�s early footpaths:

ï推荐一个买球网站的两个高中同学,约翰·皮尔斯和唐·科勒,正在帮助推荐一个买球网站做肌肉训练. I gathered these boys on our first morning at work, and simply said, �All right, I�m going to draw some lines on the ground. 你只要跟着耙子和铲子,清理Iï我标记的路径.�

So saying, I took up a sharp stick, glanced around the grounds, which by now were familiar to me down to their last shrub, and pointed my rear generally southeast. Starting from just below the patio, where the steps were to decline into the desert pathways, I backed clockwise around the perimeter, leaving the line scratched in the ground. 因此,网上买球十大正规平台从零开始或向后开始的陈腐笑话. No matter, it did get started that memorable morning.

没过多久,我那对热心的帮手就把第一条小路刮平了, unobstructed passage, and it was lovely in its promise.

—我的希望�和我对博物馆的意图�一直是许多其他年轻人能够找到知识和灵感, if not a professional career, 与推荐一个买球网站博物馆将提供的户外活动密切相关. Our successes along the way have been numbered by this scale, 令人振奋的是,推荐一个买球网站的协会提高了许多年轻人对沙漠�和他们自己�的了解.�


And so it began �

As two of the early teen pioneers expressed it �

Working at the Museum was great! �Lots of fun. I liked my coworkers (there were nearly a dozen!) I didn�t mind any task, including cleaning the two restrooms, 或者把所有的垃圾和动物粪便带到Rangerï(乔·卡瑞瑟)房子后面的地方烧掉.�清理大多数动物笼子(有些例外)使推荐一个买球网站与山猫有了近距离接触, javelinas, etc. � Roger Carpenter, 2019

我生命中最美好的回忆是在网上买球十大正规平台�与工作人员一起工作,因为那里有伟大的动物. 我是周末工作人员的一员,负责清洁和用鳞片喂动物, feathers and fur � and the insects. � Harvey Goldson, 2019


今天,博物馆继续通过各种各样的项目来庆祝青年的参与.

青少年导赏员计划对青少年志愿者(13-18岁)进行自然历史教育,并训练他们与博物馆游客互动, sharing natural history and conservation stories.

Since 1995, this program has served over 500 teens. 初级讲解员的主要工作是向博物馆游客介绍索诺兰沙漠地区的自然历史, 但它也帮助他们获得生活和学习技能,为他们上大学和就业做好准备. They practice problem solving, 加强沟通技巧,学习与他人合作的价值, all while building self-confidence and public speaking skills. 初级讲解员接受索诺兰沙漠Region�植物的全面培训, animals, geology and ecology, but also learn how to share it with others.

In recent interviews, Junior Docents shared their views of the Junior Docent Program, the Museum, and their Museum family:

来自Alexander Pye ��初级导盲员计划教会了我公开演讲的技巧,并给了我与公众合作的信心. It taught me the value of team work. 这个节目教你很多关于索诺兰沙漠的知识,以及如何为未来的生活做好准备. 当你离开初级导赏员项目时,它使你有能力把你的技能发扬下去.�
