We don't share your information with anyone else. We ask that parents subscribe to the newsletter. We respect our community's children. We believe we are part of "our village" and need to care for one another.

When my husband and I travel we like to take a guided tour of a new community. The orchestrated information and insider's guide to the community has proven to make our travel most enjoyable.

So...with that in mind, I'd also like to suggest that the coming holidays could be made more stimulating and enjoyable by having your family and/or friends journey together to a nature center or two.

If you travel, you can see one afar and go back home and enjoy your own local nature center with new eyes. To discover the native wildlife is to appreciate their role in your daily life. And to discover THEIR role in your life will deepen your reverence for life and the beauty of living in harmony.

And what better message to warm your heart during these life- enhancing holidays! God's creation can speak directly to your heart...
