When I joined Nevada Outdoor School
as a Outdoor Ethics Specialist, I didn’t know I would enjoy it this much. I
came into my position as already knowing a lot about the outdoors but I’m still
learning new things every day. In my position we travel around the state of
Nevada and teach people how to recreate the outdoors by practicing Leave No
Trace and Tread Lightly. Just being with NOS for these couple months I’ve
become more comfortable with public speaking.
I
enjoy going on the road shows and reaching out to the kids and adults. During
these road shows we have a wheel of ethics that the kids can spin. I then ask
them a question about the outdoors. Sometimes they know the answers but most of
the time they are learning something new. It’s cool knowing that I taught them
something that they will remember. I love spending my time outdoors and it’s
nice to reach out and get other people to enjoy the outdoors like I do.
I’m
very excited to severe as an AmeriCorps Member with Nevada Outdoor School and
continue to educate people about the outdoors.
