Upcoming Grand Canyon in Focus
Posted: 7/20/2010
In late July 2010, 12 Arizona youth will get a once in a lifetime opportunity to explore Grand Canyon National Park with some of our country's most enthusiastic outdoor leaders and photography professionals. The students, selected from a larger group of youth who joined the Stewart L. Udall Parks in Focus program in early June, will spend a week immersed in hands on environmental education and photography activities during Grand Canyon in Focus, a program created through a Udall Foundation and Grand Canyon National Park partnership. Participants will take the lessons learned during a first excursion to several parks in Northern Arizona and apply them to more extensive hikes into the canyon, sunset photography sessions with renowned photographer Gary Ladd, and even a float trip down a stretch of the Colorado River. The group will learn to cook healthy campfire meals and spend each night sleeping under the stars.
