Family Nature Summit









Summit!





Family!






Nature!











We
have
it
all!






For
fifteen
years...





I've been
bringing
my
family....




to
Family
Nature
Summits.




ever
since
TJ....






was
knee-high
to a
grasshopper.








Look
at
him
now!







Every year
a
different
spot...








Yellowstone




Lake
Tahoe







The
Adirondacks!






And
this
year.....







The Ozarks!







Al
and I
biked
427
miles....




from
Indianapolis
to
Potosi
Missouri...




to
the
Summit
this
year.


BTW,
it was
well over
100 degrees
for that
ride.







But the
miles
were
worth it!








As
always,
we
found
adventure...








beauty....




 and
the
friends...




from
fifteen
years
of
summiting.




KC
enjoyed
swimming
in a natural
rock
wonderland...



and
TJ's
group...





flew
the skies
on a high
ropes
course.




Tom
learned
photography...




while
I
dared
underground
caverns...








the
daring
capture...








of
wild
butterflies...
















and
the
intrepid
exploration....













of
local
organic
farms.





Dancing....






Fishing...






Exploring....




The
Summit
has
tons
of
options...







early
morning
birding...




all-
day
hikes...






and
evening
family
programs.






I love
watching
young
eyes
widen






as
they
learn





about
wild
things...





from
incredible
instructors.





Orienteering
from
the
Lion
Dave...







Climbing
from
brave
Peggy...











and
the
love
of
nature....







from
the
marvelous
Steve
Houser.





There's
something
for
everyone....





from
the
young...






to
the
young
at
heart.









Even
before
this
Summit
ends...






we
look
forward
with
anticipation...










to
next
year's
Summit...






in
Colorado!






Come
join
us!






You'll
be
glad
you
did!
