Wild Careers, Self-Employment Workshops, Saving Money, Military Deals & Discounts


Are you interested in nature and wild animals?  Have some time to volunteer?  E-mammal is an effort to track wildlife in open spaces, to take a snapshot of what animals are there.  Motion activated cameras are set and monitored by volunteers.  If the idea of animals taking selfies interests you, check out this video from the Smithsonian at: http://youtu.be/QpVkACQfJeI Who knows: It may lead to a new career in the wild for you?

Some figures show up to 45% of Veterans want to start their own business.  Free workshops for people interested in starting or improving their own small business are offered by the Business Assistance Center in Cottonwood.  On June 17th from 2-5, a Business Start-Up Lab will cover topics like start-up costs, legal issues, and marketing – call 928-340-2740 to reserve your spot and get directions, or check your local Small Business Development Center for more information for your location.
