CPN’s own Joyce Yasner was recognized recently as one of the key people who volunteer at the American Museum of Natural History. The event was held June 3.  Joyce and her co-volunteers work in the Education Department where she has spent two years assisting with various Museum programs. (Joyce is 4th from the left.) Lisa Breslof (second from left) is the secretary of the John Burroughs Association and oversees Joyce’s important work. This includes taking inventory of the material associated with Mr. Burroughs’ life and the activity of the Association. Burroughs (1837-1921) was a naturalist who lived up around Poughkeepsie, New York, and wrote many books encouraging Americans’ love of the natural world.

Congrats to Joyce!
