The swarm hotline is looking for a few more people. Want to chat about it? Text me at 510-508-5053 and we can set up a time to talk.
Things to know:
• You have to be available to take calls during the day.
• The hotline rings on every volunteer's phone at the same time. If you are not available someone else may answer or if a message is left you can call them back.
• Mid-march through May is when we need help the most.
• You will need to take notes and fill in the spreadsheet for each call you answer.
• During peak swarm season most of the calls are not complicated.
• This is an important community service that the club provides.
It can be really fun!

Elinor,
Once again, I appreciate what you and the crew do.
My day job doesn't really allow me to help out in this way but I will do my best to answer the Oakland/Berkeley swarm calls.
Thanks,
Steve
