FRIENDS OF CIBOLO WILDERNESS
Programs
Program 1 [2020]
Educational programs and Camps are conducted throughout the year. The Organization provides timely adult programs including presentations, lectures and workships on conservation and environmental subjects and provides a broad array of children's programs which are designed to teach children about conservation and preservation of the environment and the ecosystems and plant life in the Cibolo Creek watershed area in Kendall County and Northern Bexar County. In addition, the Organization hosts several different children's camps during the year. During 2020, many of the activities were not held due to the pandemic. The Summer Camps were not held though the staff did put together conservation kits that children could use to explore their local environment. Most of the adult programs were cancelled, though some were held prior to March 16, 2020 (when the Organization closed its offices and shutdown its operations due to public safety matters related to the pandemic) and reopening in the Fall of 2020.Also, effective January 1, 2020, the Organization merged the adult programs with the children's programs and camps to align all education programs under one program.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2020Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$411.9KProgram 2 [2020]
The Stewardship program is designed to provide information to the public regarding issues impacting the Cibolo Creek watershed area. The program consists of three activities: - Citizen Science which is a research activity where staff and volunteers collect crucial data on plants,water, and wildlife that inhabit the Organization's property. This data is used to determine the impact on property due to urbanization. - Cibolo Conservation Corridor which is a land and water initative to improve water quality along the Upper Cibolo Watershed, protect and restore working lands, and preserve and enhance conservation efforts on public and private lands. - Land Management which is the Organization's effort to reach out to land owners to provide information on best practices as it relates to stewardship and conservation matters impacting land owner land holdings. It should be noted that in prior years, this group of activities included adult programs but effective January 1, 2020, the adult programs were combined with children's programs and camps and the name of this progam was changed to the Stewardship program.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2020Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$242.1KProgram 3 [2020]
