BLM UT Moab Field Office Hand on the Lands - Youth Engagement Partnership: This project helps to support a partnership between the BLM Moab Field Office and an outdoor education organization to establish a Hands on the Land field camp site in order to highlight and expand educational opportunities for students concerning nature, natural cycles and scientific observations. This project supports and works in conjunction with middle school curricula while providing students with "hands on" experiences in an outdoor field classroom. Students will be encouraged to learn about the natural processes, participate in recording and documenting cultural resources such as Ancestral Puebloan rock art, and participate in natural resource enhancement projects such as removal of non-native vegetation. A field camp is located on private property. The students would stay at the field camp for several nights alongside their instructors. The Field Camp will host local Moab eighth grade students. Many local students have never had the opportunity to sleep outdoors or to be immersed in and explore their own backyards. Students from all walks of life experience the natural elements and leave this outdoor classroom with greater understanding and appreciation for nature and the outdoor environment. The project entity will offer a limited number of scholarships to students who do not have the financial resources to attend the field camp sessions.
Objectives:
a. Project would establish an identified Hands on the Lands field camp.
b. This project would also provide either the cost of bus transportation and/or to host a group of approximately 20 students for one week at the field camp.
c. Students would be engaged in ways that meet the objective of "America's Great Outdoors" and "Take it Outside" programs, such as providing young people access to outdoor recreation and educational opportunities on public lands while fostering future public lands stewards, .
d. The HOL site registration could increase awareness of the outdoor classroom as well as facilitate an opportunity to work with other HOL sites to meet agency objectives.
