Most of our customers are involved in projects related to Outdoor Classrooms, Nature Centers, and Environmental Education in general. Several years ago I became involved in the establishment of an outdoor learning center and requests for this type assistance resulted in me offering my services in the production of interpretive signs. Community participation and support for these efforts has been tremendous. I make no apologies for the time used in helping to educate our future citizens about the importance of protecting and conserving our natural environment. I invite each of you to join these efforts, as volunteers or just observers. The following quote may explain why our youth are exuberant when in natural settings. Using the real world is the way learning has happened for 99.9% of human existence. Only in the last hundred years have we put it in a little box called a classroom. From an article, Letting nature shape childhood, by Will Nixon, published in The Amicus Journal, Fall 1997, page 34.

Aristotle once said, "For the things we have to learn before we can do them, we learn by doing them". I say, "To learn about this world of ours, take a nature walk, experience the wonders of life."
