This summer five students and one trip leader at traveling along the Connecticut River to develop an intellectual, emotional, and embodied understanding of this watershed as both a socio-ecological entity and a metaphor for something larger–a paradigm for living well in a place wherever we go. Please enjoy the first blog post where Ms. Goodale asked all student on their walk through the woods to Forest Lake beach, what they were most excited about for the trip.

Zohan ’26: I’m hoping I’ll enjoy the paddling and grow too tired of it.
Ruby ’26: I hope to get to swim. I’m also excited to see nature and draw it.
Nikita ’27: I can see the threads of our community coming together and look forward to seeing how our bonds will develop. We have an amazing group!
Avi ’27: I’m excited for it all. It’s all so beautiful- I’m a fan!
Ms. Goodale: I’m excited to see how the river changes from north to south
