It's not only our kids and artists who learn about nature from our landscape. Students have the opportunity for hands on learning for their future careers in programs like forestry technology, biology and more. "Cottonwood Lake is an ideal field site as the access is easy and safe and it is difficult to find local lakes which freeze over and are deep enough to meet the objectives of a limnology lab. Not only is the site ideal for research and learning, it is a beautiful location and students were able to use the picnic site for their lunch break." - Alison Lutz . . . . . #inourownbackyard #selkirkcollege #savecottonwood #saveapex #savethetrees #wildlifeconservation #frozenlake #leavingalegacy #conservation #nelsonbc #nelsonbritishcolumbia #kootenays #onenature #nonprofit #kootenaylife #findingawesome #protectwhatyoulove Photo Credit to local student Brody Klenk https://www.instagram.com/p/BvHRfY1hLDB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1isihuh1o4zen
