Garrett Dalan will talk about conservation efforts in the Olympic forests, as well as economic and leadership work here that ties back to the organization’s conservation goals, at the next Sequim Science Café, set for 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 11, at Paradise Restaurant, 703 N. Sequim Ave.

Dalan is the Washington Coast Community Relations Manager for The Nature Conservancy, an organization that began when leading scientists, citizens and leaders came together with “a shared vision to protect and care for nature.”

The event is sponsored by the Sequim Education Foundation. The group’s mission is “to be a catalyst for vibrant growth of each student in the Sequim community.”
