More than 400 participants gathered at the Poliforum in León, Guanajuato for the 11th annual PMA Fresh Connections: Mexico conference and expo. With an impressive lineup of international speakers, covering hot topics, and a full exposition floor – a true unparalleled networking experience.
The Utah State Office of Education Title VII Program in partnership with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Red Butte Garden, the Urban Indian Center and the Utah Natural History Museum hosted the second annual of the Earth Connections Camp, American Indian Nature Camp on June 18.
The camp’s goal is to reconnect urban American Indian youth with their natural world and cultural heritage, organizers said.
The 30 campers, divided into two groups, spent the day at Red Butte Garden learning about American Indian traditions, history, arts and craft, storytelling and nutrition.
American Indian educators and specialists from the various partners led each of the learning stations.
Juan Palma, BLM Utah state director, was the keynote speaker. He shared his story of growing up in a family of migrant workers and the difference education made in his life.
Other activities during the day-long camp included building solar toys and constructing dams with the assistance of Bureau of Reclamation staff.
“I was so impressed with the instructors, volunteers, and especially the campers,” said Jeanette Shackelford, BLM Utah State Youth Program Lead. “The kids were respectful and attentive, and I personally learned a lot from listening to the different sessions.”
Organizers hope to continue to collaborate and expand the day-camp to have more students attend.

Adventures in Seeing workshop - CONNECTIONS
Very obvious to see the connection here, there isn't one single day where I don't marvel at how connected out two special ones are.
But really - it is a connection of three..... Me, the photographer, is always there as well. They accept me showing up with the camera, making odd clicking noises while they clean each other, play with each other or have a little nap. They quickly acknowledge me, and get back to their important business. Such a pleasure to watch :-)

Connections in Cruz Bay has been here since before the kids moved here in 1988. I wonder when they started business.
This might become a whole new set, the creative juices are flowing! I was again next to this mastodont, you can see the speed we were going at from the landscape.
There are so many connections lol....
Thanx, M, (*_*)
