SAVE the DATE for IGIC’s & GENI’s Decades of Work, Balancing Environment & Society in an Urban Setting: White River State Park Urban Wilderness Trail
Want to learn more about Indianapolis? Want to help gather data? Want to learn more about geospatial equipment? How do we balance environment and society through creative and unique urban green spaces? Join us as we explore the Urban Wilderness Trail at White River State Park, along with Coach Greg Harger, learning more about creating a balance between human demands and environmental well-being, sustaining a cycle of wellness for all. The hope is to kayak along a portion of the White River (precipitation quantities dependent) experiencing a view of Indianapolis most do not encounter. Kayaking is optional for those unsure about the experience. During the casual hike and kayak experience, participants will gather flora and fauna data and assist with light field work (as needed), thus, connecting participants with the community, sharing ideas and possibilities for their own communities, and leaving behind a better PLACE...as well as professional engagement possibilities with area educators and students. Results of the participants’ field work will be presented at the IGIC Annual Conference as well. Light lunch will be provided. 3 hours: 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. Comfortable and appropriate dress for walking, a bit of field work and kayaking. (PGP and GISP)
