This year, we have more opportunities available for volunteers to help out &#8211; for instance, individuals can help to put up posters in Ambleside, Windermere, Kendal and Grange-over-Sands (and all the areas in between), plus there are opportunities to come along on the day and help represent the Trust to our members and the general public.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Garden Bonanza runs from 11am to 4pm on Sunday 22 May 2011. Entry is \u00a33.50 for adults but FREE for children. Volunteers will receive free entry.<\/p>\n<p>Any expenses a volunteer incurs will be reimbursed and on the day of the event itself they will receive food and other refreshments courtesy of the Trust.<\/p>\n<p>If you would like to help out with this event, please contact Lucy Graham on 01539 816300 or email lucyg@cumbriawildlifetrust.org.uk<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cumbria Wildlife Trust is looking for volunteers from the South Lakes area to help advertise and run an event in June.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":46,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[201],"tags":[2899,2890,2896,256,2886,2898,2893,2891,1934,2888,2889,2894,2897,1343,2227,2895,499,2887,2892,408],"class_list":["post-1687","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-news","tag-beast","tag-bonanza","tag-cakes","tag-caption","tag-charity-help","tag-email","tag-family-fun","tag-fun-day","tag-grange-over-sands","tag-instance-individuals","tag-kendal","tag-leaflets","tag-lucy","tag-org-uk","tag-owl","tag-refreshments","tag-wildlife-trust","tag-willing-volunteers","tag-windermere","tag-world-owl-trust","entry"],"featured_image_src":null,"featured_image_src_square":null,"author_info":{"display_name":"admin","author_link":"https:\/\/www.naturearoundme.com\/contents1a\/author\/admin-2\/"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.naturearoundme.com\/contents1a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1687","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.naturearoundme.com\/contents1a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.naturearoundme.com\/contents1a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.naturearoundme.com\/contents1a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/46"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.naturearoundme.com\/contents1a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1687"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.naturearoundme.com\/contents1a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1687\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1690,"href":"https:\/\/www.naturearoundme.com\/contents1a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1687\/revisions\/1690"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.naturearoundme.com\/contents1a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1687"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.naturearoundme.com\/contents1a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1687"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.naturearoundme.com\/contents1a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1687"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
