Background:
In conjunction with the 40th World Earth Day in April 2010, Friends of Kota Damansara (FoKD) together with Majlis Bandaraya Petaling Jaya (MBPJ) and Global Environment Facility (GEF) will be celebrating “Mega Earth Day 2010” for its fifth consecutive year! This year’s Earth Day, themed “Forest for All” will be held on April 24th and 25th, 2010 (Saturday and Sunday) at the Kota Damansara Community Forest (KDCF).
How can I help as a volunteer ?
In the night of 24 April 2010, one of the event is NIGHT HIKING.
- Please note that you need to be there by 4pm if you are helping out for night hiking on 24th April.
- The purpose of having a night hike is to provide an opportunity for the community to experience the sound and scent of the forest at night.
- As a volunteer, you will lead a group of 10 or more into a trail which takes you about 2 hours around the forest. This group of people may contain senior citizens and small children besides adults.
- On 25 April 2010, assist individuals during kayaking, particularly making sure they put on life jackets.
Leading the group
As a "guide", you will need to:
SAFETY, SAFETY, SAFETY
-make sure hikers are all in good condition
-warn hikers of potential danger
-introduce them about the beauty of forest
-anything you can think of to make it a fun and safe hike
