We’ve all been to conferences where we got excited and re-energized and renewed our commitment to environmental education and decided we were going to do all these wonderful things to “Save the Environment.” But when we got home, reality and the daily grind seemed to get in the way and we never really did anything different. Well, we’re going to change all that at the 2008 EE Expo! This year’s conference will motivate you, inspire you and give you the tools to do

EE...Not Just Today, but Everyday!
The 2008 Environmental Education Expo will include breakout sessions on:
  • Outdoor learning spaces
  • Funding for EE
  • Resource trunks
  • Recycling
  • Composting
  • Panel discussion on EE
