Pennsylvania Association of Environmental Educators Presentation

On March 21, 2009, Bob, Kelle, and Samatman presented our approach to environmental education at the 2009 Pennsylvania Association of Environmental Educators Conference held at Lake Raystown Resort and Conference Center.  We discussed our various types of educational opportunities, including Non-Violent Communication workshops, Summer Camp, Friday Night Sustainability series, and other workshops.  We also shared our educational philosophy.  The power point presentation can be accessed from the Ahimsa Village website.  

One of the people in the audience, George Vahoviak from Shaver’s Creek Environmental Center near State College, was inspired to bring his graduate class on sustainability and education to Ahimsa Village on April 6, 2009, for a tour and discussion of our educational philosophy.  George seemed very interested in what we are doing here and this may be the beginning of a connection with Penn State students.
