Newport Bay Conservancy The Newport Bay Conservancy 501c3 (NBC) is the single nonprofit and non-government organization focus

We organize community-based native habitat restoration and other service activities that involve the public and local businesses in the stewardship of the Bay. We conduct various environmental education programs and nature tours for school and college groups and for the general public to enhance their knowledge and appreciation of the Bay and increase their awareness of the role they play in protecting the environment.

As the academic year comes to an end, we have decided to honor Dave Waller as Volunteer of the Month because he spent most of his Tuesday mornings teaching K-5th students about Newport Bay! Dave has been a naturalist since 2015 and has since helped with countless school tours and special events. Thank you, Dave, for all that you do for Upper Newport Bay!

As Earth Month comes to a close, we'd like to thank everyone who helped us celebrate on April 18th! Our Earth Day at the Bay event is a cherished tradition that wouldn't be possible without our community partners, exhibitors, staff, volunteers, visitors, and the beloved animal ambassadors, of course!

This month we are honoring a long time volunteer Naturalist, Linda Barker. In 2007, Linda went through our naturalist training and has helped with numerous programs since! In her time here, she has donated over 8,700 hours of service, most notably as a weekly front desk volunteer at the Muth Interpretive Center. She also helps curate our gift shop and assists in special event planning. This year, Earth Day at the Bay fell on Linda’s birthday. While most would take the day off to celebrate, Linda stayed the whole day helping with the special event. We are so grateful for her dedication and time as a Newport Bay Naturalist!
