MEEA Mock Trial

September 10, 2024 | Bush Honeysuckle, News


On July 13th, 2024, The Missouri Environmental Education Association (MEEA), represented by co-director Jamin Bray, conducted a training with Missouri State Parks full time and seasonal staff about interpreting invasive species in Missouri. The training course focused on mock trial programming and staff with the help of Jamin, presented the mock trial open to the public in Knob Noster State Park campground amphitheater. Public participants were given the opportunity to take part in the trial by acting as the jury. The defense attorney was so good with their argument that the jury voted that bush honeysuckle was innocent. It was an excellent training and will be part of the pre-conference session at the annual Association of Missouri Interpreters (AMI) Conference.
