Hello everyone, my name is Chris and I am joining Mt. Adams Institute for a second VetsWork AmeriCorps internship. I am so excited to return and meet the new VetsWork cohort. I am also thrilled to be working with the amazing people at Tillamook Estuaries Partnership for one more year! This is an amazing program and is designed for us the veterans.

I’m a native Cali boy from Santa Cruz. I grew up in the surf and sun, the redwoods and the mountains. I love the coast; I love taking care of this planet! I served in the United States Coast Guard and I am a graduate of Portland State University, receiving a Bachelor of Science degree with an emphasis on environmental studies and geography. I wish to continue my studies and be an active member in the environmental field. I’m hoping to continue to transform and grow; I want to be positive, active, and help others to do the same. There is plenty of work to be done; I wish everyone the best this year!

#throwbackthursday to Cascade Mountain School's 2016 Nature Art Camp! This year, CMS is offering a similar camp called Recycled Art where students will work with recycled and repurposed material to make beautiful works of art! This camp will inspire artistic spirit while gaining an appreciation for the things we throw away. Students will get the opportunity to feel like real artists in a local Trout Lake art studio as they create their magical masterpieces. Registration is open at cascademountainschool.org! #mtadamsinstitute #cascademountainschool #recycledart #summercamp #registernow #tbt
