Our mission: To provide Veterans & Youth (including the handicapable) renewal, replenishment, and restoration in nature, by strengthening their C.O.R.E (Community, Outdoor appreciation, Recreation, and Environmental Education).
Our goal:
- Encourage our participant’s natural curiosity to promote critical thinking skills, while instilling sense of place in a completely positive environment.
- Achieved by improving each participant’s knowledge in the natural world, increase feelings of ecological stewardship; reinforce good social skills, while instilling confidence through a sense of purpose.
- Provide enriched environmental education programming.
- Share the intrinsic value of nature for the public at large and present; (STEAM) science, technology, engineering, art, and math opportunities in a fresh new format.
- Establish mentorship opportunities for handicapable youth and veterans
- Provide a safe and secure environment conducive to learning.
- Constantly evaluate our impact via statistical analysis of our assessment results and surveys.

Through our affiliations/partnerships with these great organizations we fuse their skills and knowledge with our energy and passion.
Healing the broken bond between our young and nature is in our self interest, not only because aesthetics or justice demands it, but also because our mental, physical, and spiritual health depends on it. — Richard Louv
