I feel the need to explicitly link my blogs in new ways. I would like to think that the same people who enjoy reading The Otherfish Wrap would also enjoy my blog entries at: ECO-Tours of Wisconsin (this site is more for social, political and topical issues, whereas the ECO-Tours blog and ECO-tours of Wisconsin Inc., the organization, focus more exclusively on issues of the environment. Although there are occasional overlaps, I do try to keep my focus more narrowly confined to health, education, and ecological ethics and issues. This moon alone, more than 200 people checked out the writings I have made at my other site, and I take heart in knowing that both the issues I choose to tackle and the ways that I present information, as well as my attempts to present solutions to the environmental woes that we all face is part of what inspires my readers.
For instance, this moon we have found seven parcels along Lake Superior that offer an excellent opportunity to preserve sensitive acreage, protect water quality and house a school of sustainability. These seven parcels all exist within seven miles of one another, between the Wisconsin Michigan border and the wetlands East of Little Girl's Point. This area is extremely sensitive to poor management and can easily be enhanced with tools and techniques that we emphasize with our classes. The area is also unique in geology, hydrology and cultural history allowing us to tap local experience and talent to teach dozens of classes from homestead butchery to foraging for wild foods and edibles.
With over a mile of shoreline between them, these seven parcels include nine bedrooms and seven baths, mostly all clustered in the middle would allow biking, hiking and field trips to over two hundred seventy acres and over a mile of shoreline. In addition to the shoreline access offered in the school grounds proper, there are two parks, Legion park, at the mouth of the Montreal River, which includes another half mile of public access shoreline and even more hiking on the mile or so of shoreline in Little Girl's Point County Park. additional room for larger gatherings exists for both remote and tent camping experiences as well as developed ones with overflow into Little Girl's Point County Park Campground. This beautiful park has over thirty campsites and a lodge that can sleep up to forty more people. for even larger conferences and events, there are six other campgrounds and a hotel and casino within twenty miles of the facility.
The properties also have several out buildings for equipment storage, a 90 foot falls and many miles of internal trails, including many hiking opportunities along the shoreline. Few resorts or outdoor schools can offer hiking, biking and canoeing/kayaking/sailing opportunities like this. Saxon Harbor, just to the west allows for sailing access to the Apostle Islands. Hosting guests and students in this unique setting present an interesting mix of relaxation, quiet and restful days and fun, interesting and invigorating discussions, music, friendship and story-telling in to the evening.
We have been looking to get our outdoor school started on the shores of Lake Superior and this area has many more significant benefits than those this post can only hint at. On the 270+ acres we are working to protect, and within the hundreds of acres of County Parks and thousands of acres of County Forest that are adjacent to these seven parcels, the opportunities to learn and practice living lightly on the planet abound. If you would like to help support our school or make donations to help us begin the school by purchasing the acreage and accommodations, you can either call or write at ECO-Tours of Wisconsin Inc. (nine 20) double eight four-triple two four or write us by snail mail at: ECO-Tours of Wisconsin Inc. fourteen forty-five Porlier street, Green Bay, WI 54301-3334 or if you only want to contact us digitally, try Paypal account number tnsaladino42@hotmail.com which is also conveniently our e-mail.
Blessed Be!
