Lily's Frog Pad / Howard Christiansen Nature Center

 www.lilysfrogpad.com

 Hello, I would like to post on here that a Center for Nature and Conservation education for children in school is going through hard times right now in my local area and would appreciate any help at this point.

Howard Christiansen Nature Center is a place where children can go on a field trip and learn about nature and their habitats aswell as how we can preserve and save forests to help better our and animals futures.

Many schools are starting to fall out in teaching children about animals and conservation. Children should have a place where they can go to use their senses and know for themselves about nature.

I have had the pleasure of walking and speaking to the guides who work at Howard Christiansen Nature Center about their jobs and how they feel about the childrens need of learning about nature and guiding them ...All of the guides were supportive and energetic in teaching the children and took the time to guide and help each child understand natures place... The guides are barely able to be paid minimum wages for their help because they all put so much in just keeping the bills paid..

Howard Christiansen Nature Center is asking for donations to help pay bills and help funding field trips.. College interns are placed to work here for extra credit hours aswell as volunteers, If the center is no longer open and available we will not have that as an option for college students and volunteers.

Please visit www.lilysfrogpad.com for further information on the nature center and how you can help create a better future for our children, teens and even adults ...

Thank You,

Sarah K.
