We are pleased to welcome the Center for Land-Based Learning to the CREEC Network Leadership Team for the Capital Region. The Center for Land-Based Learning brings a wealth of experience in providing experiential learning for youth and professional development for educators in the Capital Region. If you aren't familiar with their work, check out their website at LandBasedLearning.org.
Land-Based Learning will take the lead on CREEC-sponsored events and produce this quarterly newsletter. If you have suggestions for future newsletter content - programs, events, research, resources - please email Karen Swan with "CREEC Newsletter" in the subject line.
The Yolo County Office of Education will continue as the fiscal agent for the CREEC Network and host workshops to support environmental education in the region. Viola DeVita will officially take over for YCOE but you'll still see Deb Bruns (now project director for YCOE's C-STEM+ program) at CREEC events, as connecting young people with the local environment remains a personal and professional passion.
See below for more news, resources and upcoming events in the Capital Region.
