Outdoor Heritage Month in the Alleghenies

Description:
Outdoor Heritage is an annual partnership initiative sponsored by Natural Biodiversity and Kiski-Conemaugh Stream Team with the goal of inspiring citizens of all ages and backgrounds to be environmental stewards of our beautiful Allegheny Mountains. We strive for this through education, outreach, and service projects that are kicked off each April and continue throughout the rest of the year. Featured efforts include Outdoor Adventures, a free elementary school field trip where students experience the outdoors through hands-on activities. Each year, Outdoor Heritage connects more than 5,000 citizens to local conservation events and educates over 1,000 children on conservation topics! This year's theme is Learn and Serve Outdoors, stressing the importance of exploring our natural world in order to derive the inspiration to protect and restore it. Outdoor Adventures is endorsed by the PA Association of Environmental Educators.
