Sumali sa Leave No Trace sa Nordhouse Dunes Wilderness Area, MI – Hulyo 18-20 , 2024
Pinipili namin ang mga nominadong panlabas na espasyo na nangangailangan ng aming sama-samang pangangalaga at atensyon. Sa pamamagitan ng pagtatalaga sa kanila bilang mga Spotlight, hinihikayat namin ang lokal na komunidad na umunlad, makipagsanib-puwersa sa Leave No Trace, at gumawa ng makabuluhang epekto na maaaring muling pasiglahin at protektahan ang mga espesyal na lugar na ito kung saan tayo muling lumilikha, magsaya sa kumpanya ng isa't isa, at magpataas ng ating kalusugan pisikal, mental at emosyonal.
Ang Nordhouse Dunes Wilderness Area ay napili bilang 2024 Leave No Trace Spotlight. Ang Subaru/Leave No Trace Travelling Team ay nasa Nordhouse Dunes Wilderness Area Hulyo 18-20 , nakikipagtulungan sa mga host at partner sa iba't ibang mga programa kabilang ang mga proyekto ng stewardship, workshop, at community outreach.

We Are The Stewards of Nordhouse Dunes Wilderness Area
The Leave No Trace Spotlight Amphitheater program will provide an opportunity to learn more about Wilderness Character and the unique features that Nordhouse Dunes Wilderness Area provides as a resource with visitors. A history of the land and its formation begins the conversation following with the history of the Anishnaabe with Marie Richards, USFS Tribal Relations Specialist and tribal citizen of Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians. The discussion then arrives to present day with how Nordhouse Dunes Wilderness Area became a congressionally designated Wilderness Area of the USFS. This program will focus on adding public understanding of what Wilderness Character is and why it is significant at Nordhouse Dunes Wilderness Area. Participants will be engaged to leave with a deeper understanding of how we, as stewards, are responsible in preserving this character for future generations to enjoy. The program will conclude with Leave No Trace and USFS staff available for a short question and answer session after the discussion.
