The Bay School
The National Outdoor Leadership School
Farm and Wilderness Foundation

All of these places emphasize wilderness and experiential education, and foster the following common values:

• self reliance
• personal responsibility
• commitment to an environmental ethic
• rigorous wilderness and natural history skills
• respect for others and the surrounding community

As I embark on my longest wilderness trip yet, I am indebted to the communities that raised me, and believe that other children would benefit from similar opportunities. Many friends and family members have already made contributions. If you are also interested in making a donation to one of these schools in honor of wilderness and experiential education please go to the donations page.
