Volunteer of the Month: Ines Rosales

Our Volunteer of the Month for August 2022 is Ines Rosales.

Ines has quickly made herself an important asset here at Flamingo Gardens.

She started in June and has quickly amassed over 110 hours. She has really taken initiative and volunteered in major areas of need for us.

Ines has been present at every Eco-teers project including this month’s mangrove propagule collection. She has regularly been involved with our Orchidteers as well as assisting Animal Care on a regular basis.

Her love of nature and wildlife shows every single time she volunteers, and she is a shining example of the type of volunteer we want here at Flamingo Gardens.

We really appreciate all the time and effort you’ve given us Ines!

Volunteer of the Month: Ariana-Marie Lorenzo

Our Volunteer of the Month for July 2022 is Ariana-Marie Lorenzo.

Ariana has been one of the most enthusiastic and pro-active volunteers we’ve ever had.

In July alone Ariana has complete 90 hours. She has been a part of every department including the Orchidteers, Animal Care, Flamingo Café, and events. Most recently she was a key contributor to our Monarchs and Milkweeds Eco-teer project.

July has been an extremely productive month for the Volunteer Department of Flamingo Gardens and Ariana may have been the biggest reason why. Thank you, Ariana!

William Rolle – Volunteer Of The Month

Our Volunteer of the Month for September is William Rolle, nominated by our Maintenance Dept.
William started out as a guide in our Aviary in March, where he was much loved by our guests. He enjoys giving tours to our visitors and educating them on the Everglades and the birds that call it home. William recently began volunteering in the Animal Care department after advocating for himself to take on additional responsibility, and has proven himself an incredibly hard worker. William is courteous and helpful, and goes out of his way to make sure that our guests have the best experience while visiting Flamingo Gardens. Look out for William on Saturday mornings assisting our Animal Care department with diets and cleaning. Thank you William!
