Do you have a passion for helping the planet? Take action and get real experience solving an environmental issue! Throughout the week you’ll research, design, and carry out an action plan to solve an environmental problem at Powdermill. Explore, hike the trails, and play games to learn about Powdermill’s strengths and challenges, then work together to come up with a solution and present it to leaders at the nature center. By the end of the week you’ll put the plan into action and make a real difference!
