"Environmental Education is a process aimed at developing a population that is aware of, and concerned about the total environment and it's associated resource problems, and which has the knowledge, attitudes, motivations, commitments, and skills to work indepently toward solutions to current problems and the prevention of new ones"

The Park staff have developed three "Traveling Trunks" which include a "mammal trunk" , "insect trunk", and a "water trunk". Area schools will be able to check out these trunks which are filled with lesson plans, activities, games, books and videos to teach units and include environmental education in the curriculum. Please contact Park Headquarters for information regarding these trunks. (806) 857-3151 or email e-mail us
