Topic:
The Arboretum- Source identification
For this blog I decided to do more
research about the arboretum. I found this particular article online at http://uwbg.galaxydigital.com/volunteer/agency/display/?agency_id=3715#
and the tittle of the page was “The arboretum, State Botanical garden of Kentucky”
under the section [Get involved]. It didn’t provide a date of publication.
Topic:
The Arboretum- word summary
The purpose of this article was to
inform people from the community about things that they can help with in the
Arboretum. As I've mentioned before the Arboretum depends on people to volunteer.
In the article they mentioned some volunteering opportunities. A few that caught my attention were: “Adopt-A-Plot
for Roses Participants, Arboretum
Volunteer Days, Docents: Tour
Guides, Receptionist
at the Visitor Center” (Get Involved). All of these things had a tab
with more information about them. The information that they provided was stuff like
dates, times, requirements, and how to sign up for them.
The
Topic: The Arboretum- Reflection/questions
This Article was very useful because
1) It cleared up some questions I had about volunteers at the arboretum and 2) now
I know how I can sign up for maybe further research. Some questions that came
to my head were: Does everyone that works at the Arboretum do it voluntary? How
many people volunteer per year? What is the most common age range of people
that volunteer?

This is a really neat topic! I didn't realize that the Arboretum allows people to sign up to volunteer, or that it allows them to do any work there at all! Is everyone that works there is a volunteer, or do they keep a paid staff as well? Do you have to be a student of the University of Kentucky to volunteer at the Arboretum or can anyone do it? Great job!
