EEASC Hosts Its Annual Conference

The Environmental Education Association of South Carolina (EEASC) will host its widely popular annual conference at Edventure Children’s Museum of Columbia on Tuesday and Wednesday, July 21 and 22. Titled Community to Classroom/Classroom to Community, this two-day conference will explore viable collaboration and partnership models for formal and informal educators to engage in, both in and out of the classroom. The event will also provide opportunities for students to explore ways to improve and educate their communities about environmental issues and various ways to take action. Free S.C. Green Steps training for formal or informal educators will be offered for those interested in leading or mentoring a K-12 school team. EEASC is a nonprofit association playing a vital role in environmental and natural resource conservation education in South Carolina. Space is limited, so those interested in attending are encouraged to RSVP and preregister with Jane Hiller, central section director.

Cost: Varies, see website for details. Location: Edventure Children’s Museum, 211 Gervais St., Columbia. For more information and to register, email [email protected] or visit EEASC.org.
