Residency

Woodruff, WI

Background and Interests

After a career in health care, I am drawn back to what has fed my soul – the natural world. To care for that natural world is one way I want to spend this stage of my life.

Reasons for signing up for this program

I have known bits and pieces about the natural world, but never have had a context and framework for those bits and pieces.

This course also gives me the resources and a venue for volunteering at the Discovery Center.

I would also love to develop a stewardship project of some sort at AVW grade school in Arbor Vitae – Bird Club, picture post in their nature trail, or join one of their expeditionary learning units; as I was a trained parent volunteer at the Program beginning in 1999-2001.

Specific naturalist areas of interest

Birding, wild flowers, seasons, forest succession.

My nature slogan that might change the world!
