Guiding is one of the most important activites offered to the community by the Friends of Geelong Botanic Gardens.
Ever though that you might like to become a volunteer Guide in the Geelong Botanic Gardens? Not sure what it involves or whether you would enjoy it?
The Friends are running a new guide training program in 2010.
The program will run on the first Moday morning of each month for 6 - 8 months.
Our first session will be an introduction to guiding, so if you've always wondered what it is all about and if guiding is for you, please let us know through the Friends Office and come along to our first session on Monday 1st March at 9:30am in the Friends meeting room.
