July 7th – The Adventure Begin


The Inside Education Grasslands Institute begins bright and early Monday morning. A motor coach (not the yellow school bus that most of us were expecting) picked up teachers in Edmonton, Red Deer and Calgary. We arrived in Lethbridge, checked into the Lethbridge Lodge and were soon off to a kick-off barbeque and nature walk. What an amazing experience to stroll among the coulees in the Old Man River Valley. We learned through initiative games and demonstrations about the native animals and vegetation that lived among those Coulees. Many of us finished off the evening with a short hike to the top of the Coulees and back to our hotel room.
