Representatives from Baltimore Woods Nature Center (BWNC), Dominion Transmission, Inc., and National Grid met in November to seal a deal that will touch many children’s lives.
Dominion Transmission presented BWNC a check for $15,000 to sponsor the nature center’s award-winning “Nature in the City” (NITC) natural science-based education programs in three Syracuse elementary schools - Ed Smith, Meachem and H.W. Smith.
Lockheed Martin, SRC, National Grid, and Time Warner Cable are also sponsoring NITC programming at elementary schools in the Syracuse City School District (SCSD), and are supporting the nature center’s efforts.
The Syracuse City School District is matching donations pledged by the corporate sponsors. Through the financial support of SCSD and the corporate sponsors, Baltimore Woods educators are bringing hands-on science programs to 11 Syracuse elementary schools, reaching 5,520 students in grades K-6 during the 2009-2010 school year.
NITC programs teach important natural science concepts to elementary schoolchildren through meaningful interactions with their neighborhood environment. BWNC believes that an awareness and knowledge of the natural world are essential to developing a sense of stewardship and meaningful understanding of science in the context of their neighborhoods and everyday lives.
Baltimore Woods Nature Center (BWNC) is a premier member-supported environmental education center located in Marcellus. BWNC offers people of all ages opportunities to enjoy and learn about nature first-hand in a positive environment that encourages lifelong respect for nature, for others and for self. Six miles of hiking trails are open from dawn to dusk every day. The John A. Weeks Interpretive Center is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information, please call 673-1350, or visit baltimorewoods.org.
