Thursday and Friday




Well we're winding down here in Stonington, CT.  We had a really wonderful time.  Yesterday, we went sailing aboard the ARGIA in Mystic, CT.  We explored
 Long Island
 Sound, went fishing, and learned about life aboard a tall ship. Here are some pictures from yesterday!

Day 3!

Today was an awesome day.  We had an introduction to environmental sciences in the morning, a renewable energy workshop in the afternoon, and a trip to the Mystic Aquarium.  Here are some pictures from our day so far! 
Good morning!  We have an early start this morning to explore costal wetlands and fields on Barn Island.  We'll do water quality studies, and learn more about the marsh ecosystem.  It's very exciting!
Yesterday, we heard an inspirin
g presentation from Leave No Trace (lnt.org) and worked on collaborative leadership.  We capped it all off with a night hike!  Here are some pictures from yesterday!
