No Child left Inside!
This I feel very strongly about and wanted everyone to know that if we as adults do not take the time to take a youngster out hunting and/or fishing or to just enjoy and teach about the environment and nature that there will be no one to pass on the tradition and heritage that we have come to care about.Â
No Child Left Inside is a major state initiative designed to reconnect youngsters with the outdoors, build the next generation of environmental stewards and showcase Connecticut’s state parks and forests.
A key element of the program is The Great Park Pursuit, The Connecticut State Parks Family Adventure. Now in its second year, the Great Park Pursuit takes Connecticut families on a tour of state parks and forests throughout the spring. Families follow clues to determine which parks to visit as they compete for outdoor adventure prizes. Visit No Child Left Inside to sign up and learn more about No Child Left Inside and the Great Park Pursuit.
What a great program to involve our kids the in the great outdoors. We can never have enough of these programs. I urge everyone to become involved in introducing someone to the great outdoors and all the activities that it presents in our lives.
