Kalamazoo Nature Center, Inc.

The Kalamazoo Nature Center will partner with several area community groups (Pretty Lake Vacation Camp, Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater of Kalamazoo, Interfaith Homes/Neighborhood Apartments, and Lakeside Treatment and Learning Center) to develop “Neighborhood Naturalists,” an after-school environmental program. The program will utilize environmental activities and adult role models to teach children about science and the outdoors. The partners will also develop nationally-marketed workshops to teach other organizations how to develop similar programs.
