Favorite part of earning her certification? Barb enjoyed traveling to different parks across the state.

Certification experience that stands out? "I enjoyed many great outdoor learning experiences, so picking just one is difficult. That said, the Forest Ecology Workshop at the Pisgah Forest Institute was a most wonderful and memorable experience."
Her Action Partnership? For Barb's Action Partnership she created a storm drain education and marketing project in her 210 home Charlotte development. The project was called, "Only RAIN Goes Down the Storm Drain."
