Meet Our New Naturalist Interns!

We have eight new naturalist interns at Sierra Outdoor School for the 2016-2017 school year! They are all super excited to join the team. Here's some interesting information about them! Robin VanHouten Nature Name: Sun Dog Hometown: Granite, Maryland Fun Fact: Robin's dream job as a kid was to be an astronaut... and he still hasn't given up on that dream. Best Nature Experience:  He has seen a moose, bears, a grey wolf, and a mountain lion (only 30 yards away!). If you could only eat one food item for the rest of your life what would it be? Bruschetta- roasted garlic, aioli, pesto, tomatoes, and good bread! Amanda Colley Nature Name: Salamanda Hometown: Wingdale, New York Fun Fact: Amanda was a part of a reforestation project in Ecuador and helped plant 1500 trees. Best Nature Experience:  While she was teaching and searching for amphibians, she witnessed hundreds of young toads emerging from the water for the first time! Prefer
