Stephen's Story
My long strange trip has lead me to Southern Oregon. I found a Nature Center that needed help so here I am ! Semi-retired landscaper but a lifetime Environmentalist. In 2014 I received a B. A. in Environmental Studies from Fort Lewis College up in Durango Colorado. It was a compliment to my degree in Conservation Technology from a little school in Oshkosh Wi. that has a larger campus in Appleton.

Unfortunately the Wolves of Isle Royale are vanishing and have never seen one in over 40 separate trips there. After two years in California with Doreen I arrived here in June.

The dream of developing a Discover Center requires donations and the butterfly pavilion is raising only a small part to keep the bills paid.
