Spring Stewardship Stewardship Weekend
Registration opens February 6th, 2023
March 3-5, 2023
Westwind invites you to spend a weekend on the beach as a volunteer! Stewardship weekends include site work, cleaning, and conservation. Children must be accompanied by parents or guardians.
Participation in Stewardship weekends is by reservation only and on a first-come, first-serve basis. Meals, beds, tools and instruction are provided – please note you will be sharing lodging with others. Bring your own sleeping bag, pillow and towel. For those who can, Westwind asks for a voluntary $75 donation per person to cover food, lodging, and extra cleaning requirements.
