Northern Lights Eco Adventures Goes Virtual


2020 has been unusual to say the least. Between extreme weather and COVID19 we had to cancel our Northern Lights Eco Adventure Camp. (Part of our Take Bike the Streets Initiative check out takebikethestreets.org for more info.) However trail usage is up 200%+. We are producing a few virtual tours of area attractions that you can enjoy with your friends and family.

Project Background:

In the summer of 2018 Northern Lights Eco Adventures piloted our first Region Service Expedition. It encompassed four nights and five days of expedition-based learning through the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore and Northwest Indiana. The campers started in Michigan City and ended at the Douglas Center in Gary. The campers backpacked/paddled/and biked through the dunes and beach while learning about the local ecosystems and natural history of the community. The students also participated in local service projects and community art projects. By the end of the trip the students created a goal with an action plan dedicated to an individualized service project committed to complete in their hometown. 2019 saw us do several day trips and win the American Planning Award. 2020 has required us to take our camp online.
