Suggestions and Reminders for ELF Coordinators

Coordinators' Retreat
Usually held in late October, the ELF Coordinators' retreat is an opportunity for coordinators to get together and share ideas with each other and with ELF staff about what works well or could be improved in ELF. Join us and try new activities, meet great people, and learn from each other. This year's retreat was on Monday, October 24 at the VINS Bragdon Preserve in Woodstock, VT. Topics of discussion included ELF in the 21st Century, and, of course, sharing great ideas with other ELF coordinators. We will send a summary of the discussion to all coordinators soon.

Please send in the yellow postcard VINS provides that asks for the number of students, volunteers, and classrooms doing ELF. We need this information to make sure you get the right amount of materials! (e.g., owl pellets)
