Project Learning Tree Workshop

Interested in environmental education or youth outreach? Project Learning Tree (PLT) will host a workshop on Saturday, March 18, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., at the River Oaks Retreat Center, located at 180 Youth Camp Road, in Honea Path, South Carolina. Participants will receive PLT’s Pre-K-8 and Project WILD K-12 activity guides. The workshop will include materials and snacks; however, participants should plan to bring a bag lunch. Room accommodations are available for an additional fee. Contact the center directly for pricing at 864-634-7600. Space is limited, so preregistration is strongly suggested. 

PLT is an environmental education program designed for teachers and other educators working with students from pre-K through high school. It uses the forest as a “window” into the natural world, helping young people gain awareness, a sense of responsibility, and knowledge of the environment. The S.C. program is sponsored by the S.C. Forestry Foundation, S.C. Department of Education, and S.C. Forestry Commission, and the forest industry at large.
