The title of the Appalachian Trail Conservancy magazine is Journeys.
That is a fitting title for the beginning of my TTEC adventure. Upon my return from TTEC 2013, I had a
number of people ask how I would bring the AT to a city that sits 2 hours from
the Trail. I explained that’s it’s not
just the AT, but it’s about connecting kids with meaningful opportunities in
their community and getting them outside.
The end goal of course, is to get them onto the trail. To that end, we have begun talking to local
organizations in an attempt to identify the needs of the community. My students are enthusiastic about the idea
of getting outside and engaging in meaningful services opportunities. Thus, we continue to be on the lookout for organizations that want to partner with our students. We are on the beginning steps of our Appalachian Trail journey.
