Today our Keystone Leadership Crew had the opportunity to learn about environmentalism and careers while spending time at the Trout Brook Nature Sanctuary. They learned about the history of this land and the activism that took place by environmentalists and public law makers to advocate against making this a public dumping site.
Once they learned about the history, they went geocaching to learn about environmental issues specific to this area. When they finished, they reconvened as a whole group and shared what they learned.
Next, the Keystone Crew put on goggles, gloves and grabbed saws to help get rid of the buck thorn in the area. They then had the privilege to speak to a few people who work in the field and learn from them what careers are available in the field.
Thank you to Excel Energy and Great River Greening for taking the time to make this field trip so meaningful and feeding us subway.
