SUMMARY:Orchids Under the Full Moon
DESCRIPTION:Families are complicated—Orchidaceae most of all.\n\n\nA bracing winter night’s walk\, illuminated by March’s full moon\, transports us to the Orchid Range\, and from there: Panama? Nepal? Ghana? The incredible diversity of color and form in this global flower family is ours to explore\, and their hidden evolutionary stories ours to read—if we know how. Are orchids’ unique\, co-evolved entanglements with pollinator\, fungus\, and land what give rise to their reputation as fragile and fickle plants\, or is this what simply what happens whenever a species is displaced from its native habitat? \nThis program will take place entirely outdoors. Please dress for the weather. Participants will travel about 2 miles on paved\, gravel\, and dirt surfaces. \n\n\nProgram Guidelines\nDid you know members receive 10% off all programs?

SUMMARY:GIS for Conservation
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to integrate GIS into Conservation.\n\n\nCourse Overview\nThis three-day short course equips participants with foundational GIS skills using ArcGIS as a tool for applied conservation. Participants will gain the confidence and technical ability to use GIS for spatial analysis\, ecological monitoring\, field data integration\, and conservation storytelling. Emphasizing practical\, field-based applications\, the course focuses on how GIS supports habitat management\, restoration planning\, species tracking\, landscape analysis\, and effective communication of conservation outcomes. Through hands-on activities and real-world examples\, participants will explore how spatial tools can drive more informed decisions. This course is ideal for conservation practitioners\, land managers\, educators\, and environmental professionals looking to integrate GIS into their work. \nDay 1: Fundamentals of GIS and Conservation Applications \n\nIntroduction to GIS in conservation\nCreating\, collecting\, and managing data\nField data collection using mobile apps (Survey123\, Field Maps)\n\nDay 2: Spatial Analysis \n\nPattern recognition and spatial relationships\nMapping and analysis in ArcGIS Pro\nSharing maps and data products\n\nDay 3: Storytelling \n\nUsing ArcGIS StoryMaps and Instant Apps\nDesigning engaging storytelling tools\nCreating project pages using ArcGIS Hub\n\n \n\n\nContinuing Education Credits\nThis course is approved for credits from the following organizations. \nAmerican Society of Landscape Architects: TBD \nEcological Society of America: TBD \n \n\n\nAbout the Instructor\nJoseph Kerski is a geographer and educator focused on GIS-based curriculum development\, research in the effectiveness of GIS in education\, professional development\, communication about the need for geographic skills\, tools\, and perspectives through keynote addresses\, articles\, social media\, and workshops\, and fostering partnerships to support GIS in education and society. He has given two TED talks and has created over 6\,000 geo-related videos. Joseph teaches online and face-to-face courses for a wide variety of audiences and communities including the Native Indigenous community\, HBCUs\, educators\, conservation/environment\, and others. He is active in educational and environmental nonprofit organizations\, including SCGIS\, NAAEE\, AAG\, NCSS\, and served as president of the National Council for Geographic Education.

SUMMARY:Wilderness First Aid
DESCRIPTION:Course Overview\nWFA students will learn practical wilderness first aid skills and gain the confidence to step up\, make decisions\, and ultimately create positive outcomes from unpredictable situations. \nWe don’t have all the medical resources we have at home when we’re in the woods\, so it’s vital to have the essential tools\, the right skills\, and know how to improvise when faced with a medical emergency in the backcountry. Practical hands-on exercises and scenarios will improve retention and confidence. Developed for the public from years of teaching this course to Search & Rescue professionals\, students now benefit by learning the most current practices for patient assessment\, trauma interventions like splinting and bleeding control\, environmental emergencies like venomous snakebites and bee stings\, medical emergencies like strokes and chest pain\, illnesses\, and more. These skills not only apply just to hiking\, but anytime we’re in the outdoors. We welcome students from all outdoor pursuits – scout leaders\, quad riders\, beachgoers\, mountain bikers\, fishermen\, adventure racers\, and even those who just enjoy relaxing at the family BBQ. Having the knowledge\, skills\, and confidence to step up and help in a time of need is invaluable. \nUpon completion\, students will receive a 2-year ASHI WFA certification\, which is accredited by the American Camp Association (ACA) and accepted by Scouts BSA and GSUSA. \nFeatured Topics\n\nPatient assessment\nTrauma interventions – Bleeding control\, splinting\, wound care\, etc.\nMedical interventions – Stroke\, diabetes\, allergies\, breathing difficulty\, etc.\nEnvironmental emergencies – Heat\, cold\, bites & stings\, plants\, weather\, etc.\nBackcountry first aid kit contents\n\nSchedule\nDecember 9 from 6:00PM-10:00PM \nDecember 11 from 6:00PM-10:00PM \nDecember 13 from 9:00AM-5:00PM \n\n\n\n\nAbout the Instructors\nJoe Galvan is a lifelong hiker and in his element when sharing outdoor experiences\, mentoring others\, and connecting with the outdoor-minded in our community. Joe is a search and rescue officer and instructor\, MRA accredited mountain rescue unit lead\, National Park Service Technical Rope Rescue instructor\, Adirondack Winter Mountaineering School Instructor\, Adirondack 46er\, and an accomplished mountaineer with ascents across North America and Europe. \nScott Fitterman grew up hiking and camping in an outdoor-minded family and became a scout leader to give back when his 3 kids joined scouting. Scott is a search and rescue officer and instructor\, volunteer EMT\, wilderness first responder and wilderness EMT instructor\, public safety diver\, National Park Services technical rope rescue graduate\, Catskill 35er\, New York State Licensed Guide\, and leads week-long treks in the backcountry for scouts in the northeast. \nLearn more about the instructors and The TrailBound Project. \n\n\n\n\nPrerequisites\nCPR certification – Adult CPR & AED (or higher). Anyone can take the WFA course but the 2-year WFA certification cannot be provided until successful completion of the course and proof of CPR is presented. The Red Cross offers CPR certification courses. \nThis program assumes participants are comfortable outdoors.
