“We support area educators and all they do for their students,” says Sharon Waltrip, Environmental Education Program Manager. “We invite teachers and their families to visit our day-use facilities, see what we have to offer, and pick up an educator resource packet. Our environmental education programs encourage critical thinking and hands-on learning about nature, history, and space.”
