The Nature Activities
Fowler's nature program strives to do two things:
-the first is to get campers outdoors, in the woods or bog; on the water
or looking at the sky! Whatever we can in order to make their imaginations
come alive and to help them discover (or rediscover) the mystery and beauty
that surrounds us. Learning about trees and how they grow or what plants provide
for a tasty treat or what animals might just call this part of the earth "home."
-the second focus is in helping our campers understand their role as caregivers
to this world of wonders. We have gardens and solar panels and compost piles
and green spaces. We're helping a new generation take on the role of stewards
of God's world: hopefully building on our learnings and correcting mistakes
from those who have come before them.
