Zumbro Watershed Partnership Series:

Fostering Stewardship Among the Next Generation

Thursday, July 13th at 6:30 PM, lower level-Cascade Meadow

The work we do today as stewards of our natural resources can easily be ignored or repealed by the next generation.  How do we ensure that our conservation efforts secure a lasting legacy for future generations?  It begins by ensuring that every child has access to opportunities to develop a relationship with the natural world.  Join Sara Holger, Founder and President of Project Get Outdoors, a local non-profit organization working to facilitate outdoor experiences for children across Minnesota.  Sara will share information, resources and ideas to help you connect the children in your life and in your community to the wonders of our natural world, and by doing so, ensure our environmental legacy is secured long into the future.
