This week’s blog was written by Lily, a Bucktails alum. Lily returned to field school this past summer as a member of our Academy Support Team. She states that she continues to stay involved with WLA because of the profound impact the program has had on her perspective and commitment to conservation
This week, we’re shining the spotlight on Riley, a Bucktails alum whose outreach has been as diverse as it is inspiring. From hands-on service projects to creative ways of engaging kids, Riley has embraced every opportunity to share his love of the outdoors as a Conservation Ambassador.
During their outreach journey, students can submit their outreach books for an “Early Bird” check-in date, when the books are scored and returned to them. As a reward, those students who submit on this date and their families are invited to our special Early Bird Trip. This year, we had the unique opportunity to visit Shaver’s Creek Environmental Center.
We are continually inspired by the passion of our students as they take action in their communities. This week, we are thrilled to highlight the outstanding outreach efforts of Samantha, a Brookies field school alum, who has gone above and beyond in her community engagement.
We are thrilled to spotlight Kye, a dedicated Conservation Advocate in our Stepping Stones Program. Kye has demonstrated exceptional commitment and creativity in sharing his conservation knowledge through a variety of impactful projects. Below, we share some highlights from his outreach journey.
