Volunteer of the Year
Each year, the Board of Directors names a person who has made a significant contribution as a volunteer for the Friends of Madera Canyon. Because Bud Gode, a former board member and board President was the ultimate volunteer and inspiration for volunteers and the interpretive nature trail named in his honor and memory, the person named by the board becomes the Bud Gode Volunteer of the Year.
