GUFC FIRST QUARTERLY PROGRAM:

TREES AND HEALTH:  Getting Kids Outdoors!

February 22, 2012

10 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Location: The Jefferson Civic Center, 65 Kissam Street, Jefferson, GA 30549.

How do we get youngsters outdoors among the trees? Why is this an issue? What health benefits does activity in greenspace bring to children? What opportunities are out there to introduce the marvels and benefits of nature to kids? Join us as we discuss these challenges. Weather permitting, we’ll take an optional walking tour of historic Jefferson and its plantings after the program.  Click here to learn about speakers.

$35 members, $45 non-members.  Lunch Included.  3 ISA CEUs will be available. 2 CFE credits for SAF Foresters, category 2.
