Annual Workshop

The Nebraska Master Naturalist Annual Workshop held November 4th through 6th in Nebraska City was a great success! It was wonderful to see all of your bright shining faces again. New friendships were made, great food was eaten, new Master Naturalists were discovered, and some amazing times were had.

Thank you to all of our instructors and partners for helping us pull this all together! I hope you had as good of a time as we did. And the best part, we'll be doing it all again soon :)

Welcome!
