Sevilleta Nat'l Wildlife Refuge

Come along with Zeta for a FREE day trip to the Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge! On Friday, June 9th from 8AM-6PM, we’ll tour the Sevilleta Long Term Ecological Science Experiments, do activities with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Rangers, and learn about plant collections!

Transportation and lunch are provided – all for free! High school students are preferred, with some space available for parents to join. Register using this link. Space is limited, so grab your spot today! Pickup and drop off is at Highland Pool, located at 400 Jackson St SE, Albuquerque, NM 87108. Vans will depart at 8 AM and return at 6 PM. There is space for 45 attendees.

“PearlZ in the Wild” mobilizes Zeta women and Zeta affiliates to engage in healthy outdoor activities at USFWS National Refuges under the “Zetas Have Heart- Zeta Days at The Refuge” Program. National park visitorship is severely skewed, and Black folks are most underrepresented. This reflects Jim Crow policies and violence often inflicted on Black people in outdoor spaces, rather than a lack of cultural engagement with the natural world. Zeta aims to reclaim these spaces and illuminate the scientific, naturalist, and healthy opportunities provided through national wildlife refuges. Join us!
