Natural Leader’s Legacy Camp

Arinn here, reporting in on the Natural Leader’s Legacy Camp!

I was lucky enough to be selected to attend the Children and Nature Network’s Legacy Camp!  This provided me with the tools and connections to become a Natural Leader.  I spent four days at Islandwood, an outdoor educational center on Bainbridge Island, Washington.  Over the course of the camp, I learned about my leadership style, community organizing, and effective communication.  In addition to all of that, I made some amazing friends and was fortunate enough to meet with many wonderful people- including Richard Louv himself!

It didn’t hurt that it took place in one of the most beautiful places I had ever seen.  I saw cedars larger than anything I could imagine!  Black tailed deer, SEA OTTERS, and garter snakes were just a few examples of wildlife I bumped into.  Everything there was so green, it didn’t matter if it was living or dead.  Moss, lichens, and ferns covered nearly everything in sight.

Natural Leaders work to empower a worldwide youth movement to strengthen the bond between people and nature.  And being a new Natural Leader, I can’t wait to do just that with E-Corps Expeditions!
