Description
To wrap up the Fall Season of Centred Outdoors, join Program Coordinator, Olivia Stas, to slow down, connect with community, and offer gratitude to the natural world around us. The group will be taking an easy walk through the trails of the Boal Mansion with various stops along the way. Olivia will be pulling inspiration from the teachings of Robin Wall Kimmerer and sharing excerpts from the Thanksgiving Address, a traditional message of gratitude from the Haudenosaunee.
