Winter Break 2024 Participant
One afternoon, we removed invasive species from a community walk path. It was so important for us to give back, and it was an awesome way to help out.

Winter Break 2024 Participant
I think preparation for this trip is key. It is important to identify places you want to visit, or things you really want to do, and figure out well in advance when you will be doing them. But it is also important to go with the flow, and never pass up an opportunity to experience anything.

Winter Break 2025 Participant
I loved the hands-on learning experiences! Whether I was working in the community garden or getting a tour of a local business to learn about how they incorporate sustainability, it was an immersive and much more rewarding experience than a traditional classroom setting.
