I am new to blogging, and therefore, will probably be a little slow with my initial postings.
My goal with this blog is to accomplish a site in which people can search and find current information regarding the importance of integrating experience with environmental education. By encorporating fun, outdoor experiences with education about the environment, I feel that we are more likely to create environmental stewards (that is, more likely than simply discussing environmental issues in a classroom while having NO contact with the subject matter). Also, if people are given some kind of outdoor skill, such as basic hiking techniques, then they are more likely to spend time in natural environments and therefore develop a relationship with the natural world.
So, that is the premise of this blog......we'll see how it turn out :)
