Eri's Adventure 2 Project
Eri's Adventure 2 Project
- Beginning August 2020 and ending October 2020, John Kuntz will be paddling, in the name of teaching youth about adventure, the 1,100 miles of the Kootenay and Columbia river from the source (start) to the sea (Pacific Ocean). You will be able to follow his adventure everyday and at times communicate and interact with him along the route allowing your students to ask questions and learn.
- Your classroom or group can follow John and share in his adventure during the trip. You can incorporate this into your curriculum providing valuable insights into our system of power generation, geography, Native American culture, History of westward expansion starting with Lewis and Clark, and how it all relates to today's global warming crisis and more. You can use this as a learning tool in any way that you wish.

To follow there is no cost. You can access our adventure curriculum, links library, John's GPS tracking, and image library at no cost and follow along.
There are costs for materials like maps, postcards and other materials.
We are trying to keep this program as no cost to schools but we need support through our gofundme page and selling Tshirts, hats, and other items.

Diane Conmy's third grade class in 2018 from Lincoln School in Oak Park, Illinois followed John's journey from beginning to end. Click here if you'd like to be an AdventurePal. Her class shared research projects, artwork, poetry, and local paddling experiences with their AdventurePals.
