My daughter will be attending Green River Preserve for her 5th season this summer. It is her favorite place in the world. She loves everything about it. It has been a big part of forming her interests and values, from her love of nature to her respect of others. I myself have enjoyed attending family camp, which allowed me to understand her experience at camp. The daily mentor hikes are wonderful, and the whole environment is one of peacefulness and fun. The campers learn to respect the environment and to be conscious of their environmental choices, from learning to not put more food on their plate than they will eat to thinking about how much toilet paper they really need to use. They learn to love the natural world and to care about protecting it.
