When you register you can indicate areas where you can help. Some of the opportunities include:
Help with administration: paper work, fold frogsheet, labels, typing, phoning, email etc
Give technical support: help with technical glitches, advise on technology (hardware/software).
Help at displays: take display, or assist when display taken, to open day or fete. Be public face of QFS. Answer frog queries. This is good fun and a great learning experience!
Develop promotional material: design/write promotional material eg brochures, flyers, booklets, posters, costumes. An opportunity for the creative.
Help with publicity/fundraising: Contact newspapers or other media, raise profile of frogs and QFS. Advertise events. Think of fundraising ideas.
Give talks to groups or schools: schools often contact QFS requesting talks about frogs (ponds, habitats, lifecycle). If not confident, go with Jenny on a school visit to see what is involved.
Restore habitat: Join the volunteers at beautiful Bowman Park, Bardon by Ithaca creek to restore and improve frog habitat by planting natives and removing invasive weeds.
Attend camps, go frogspotting or survey frogs: Camps are held about 4 times per year. Frogspotting is opportunistic (when it rains) and local. Surveying is methodical frogspotting (counting and accurate identification).
