After 9 years of expanding and improving the California Naturalist program and helping to usher in the UC Climate Stewards course, our Coastal Northern California Community Education Specialist, Brook Gamble, is moving on to a new organization. 

Brook has been at the forefront of CalNat's evolution and has molded many of the systems we use to make our program the success it is today. As one of our lead communicators, her success was in large part because she had her finger on the pulse of our community and kept us focused on your needs, interests, and challenges. As the longest standing staff member, she has served as a faithful well of wisdom for our team. While it saddens us to lose such a creative, intelligent, and generous force, we wish for nothing but incredible moments awaiting her on this next adventure.

Please take a moment to share your favorite Brook memories in the comments and join us in a fond farewell as we send her off to incredible things. Thank you for everything, Brook!
