Do you enjoy the outdoors and working with children? On Saturday, Sept 24th, the National Wildlife Federation will be taking part in the 'World Wide Day of Play' on the National Mall (DC) on the Ellipse .This event is co-sponsored by the cable TV channel Nickelodeon. We will be doing a series of fun activities - a scavenger hunt to learn about wildlife, playing outdoor games that feature wildlife and helping to learn about geo-caching (tech version of a scavenger hunt). But, we need your help!  The National Wildlife Federation is looking for enthusiastic 'fun' volunteers (adults and teenagers) who would be interested in participating.  We hope to see you there.
