Our goal is to take people out,
teach them about what constitutes the health of the Great Lakes,
and what they can do to help be stewards in the future.
We've had teachers from Indiana, Ohio, Wisconsin
and throughout the whole of Michigan
be able to come to our professional development training.
Being able to bring that back to their classrooms
and translate that spark into stewardship of
their own watershed
is my goal as a place-based educator.
