Twice a year, Howard County Conservancy offers free training to volunteers who are interested in learning how to lead field trip hikes at our Mt. Pleasant location, in Woodstock. The spring 2026 training sessions will take place on the following dates in March. (Click highlighted links to sign up.) All classroom sessions run from 9-12 and begin with coffee and conversation.
