NorthWoods – Inspiring Stewardship

2016-12-13T19:11:56-05:00June 1st, 2015|Conservation Corps, Education, Forest Stewardship Institute, Highlights, News|

In the season ahead, students and campers will monkey in the ropes course, hook rainbows in NorthWoods’ pond, and adventure northern forests and rivers. Corps members will abor on trails and wildlife habitats — and cool off at the nearest swimming hole. Your support makes this happen. Individuals and businesses who give to the NorthWoods Annual Fund each year help keep our doors open and our bills paid so our world-class staff can focus on the missionahead. You help us discount field trips, extend camperships, manage on-site trails and inspire all ages to care for our landscape. Please support these inspiring programs [Read More...]
