The Iowa Conservation Education Coalition is excited to welcome educators from across the Midwest to beautiful Decorah, Iowa, for the 2021 Midwest Environmental Education Conference!
This year's theme centers around ideas of re-defining community to include all land, water, and people, and building healthy, resilient, vibrant communities for all, and we hope to spark conversations about what environmental education is, who it serves, and how it is presented.

Hiking Adventure!
Saturday, June 12th 1pm - 3pm
Pine Point Regional Park, Stillwater, MN
Explore a new park or natural area in the Twin Cities with us! Led by Wendy Tremblay, an avid hiker, and MAEE's Executive Director, this hike promises to be a mini adventure! Many MAEE members have plant, bird & animal expertise and we'll be learning from each other as we explore new twists and turns along the trail.
We'll meet at Pine Point Regional Park in Stillwater - a serene nature area with pine forests, lakes, marshes and five miles of multi-trails for biking, hiking, running, bird watching, cross-country skiing and horseback riding.
*This hike does require a Washington County Vehicle Permit to park at Lake Elmo Park Reserve. You can order them online or purchase them at a pay box at the park entrance. For more information, go to https://www.co.washington.mn.us/.../Vehicle-Permit...
