Our mission is to connect students and community to the environment through dynamic experiences
that inspire curiosity, critical thinking, collaboration and problem solving.
Our vision is to be a globally recognized Outdoor Learning Center where all learners become life-long environmental stewards.
Let's get outside together!
Please contact me if you are interested in a campus-based experience to enrich or extend our curriculum with outdoor learning
OR if your grade wants to learn directly in nature at the OLC.

What will I learn at the booth?
You'll get to meet Outdoor Amy and Allyson! We will share with you all the learning your students have the opportunity to experience at the OLC. Learn about what wildlife we observe, who comes and learn with us, and what resources are available for you for outdoor learning! A great chance to ask lots of questions about the OLC!
OLC Engage Session
