Environmental Education Commission

It is the staff and friends of the Brother Brennan Centre that make it a really special place. These people are what Brother Brennan would have called his 'kindred spirits'.

In the past few years they have:

• Built "The Lodge" - a new outdoor classroom
• Obtained snowshoes from MEC to support winter camping
• Created a new website
• Hosted two Much-Ado-About-Mushrooms workshops with Andrus Voitk
• Built outhouses to support winter camping
• Set up orienteering courses and maps
• Hosted two Much-Ado-About-Painting workshops with Barbara Pratt
• Celebrated the centre's 25th anniversary
• Hosted the 2008 provincial orienteering championships
• Hosted a “Much-Ado-About Map and Compass” workshop
• Hosted a “Mushroom mania” week-end
• Celebrated the installation of wind-turbines
• Had a lot of fun!

They have plans to continue hosting Much-Ado-About … workshops, and supporting the Environmental Education’s Commission’s vision of an organic garden, landscaping with native plants and installing further green technology.
