YMCA PRESIDIO


Today we worked with some young Environmental Stewards from the YMCA Presidio located in San Francisco. We had 6 adorable 5 year olds, and their rock-in counselors Sam & Mike. The San Fran locals were all ears about Leave No Trace, and why taking care of their city and the environment is so important. We played a variety of PEAK games and talked about how stewardship applies to summer camp, the environment, and life! A couple of the Peak activities we played were "Watch Your Step", "What Principle Am I", "How Long Does It Last", and "Stealing the WOW". All the campers were awesome at the activities, and promised to share the Seven principles of Leave No Trace with the other campers, friends, and family. We had such a blast hanging at the Presidio YMCA today, and hope to do more education and outreach with them in the future! 

Happy Trails from the E-Tour,
