||| FROM KATIE FINCHER for FRIENDS OF THE SAN JUANS |||
We are all ready for some new connections and opportunities. Through the Virtual Fair, you have an opportunity to connect with Friends of the San Juans’ staff, ask questions, and hear the passion that drives their mission.
Join the virtual couch for Q&A sessions with Friends staff: Jess, Tina, and Brent; student mentees Ela and Linnea; plus a special appearance by Craig Canine from the San Juan Preservation Trust. It’s a unique chance to ask directly what you want to know about Friends’ work and get to know them better.
