Let children walk with Nature, let<br />
them see the beautiful blendings and<br />
communions of death and life… as taught<br />
in woods and meadows, plains and<br />
mountains, and streams of our blessed<br />
star… John Muir, naturalist<br />
The sunlight-dappled boardwalk offers a<br />
view of two of our planet’s most precious<br />
resources, the majesty of Francis Beidler<br />
Forest and the wonderment of our<br />
children. It is the fascination reflected<br />
on each child’s face that reminds even<br />
the most jaded observer that this serene<br />
sanctuary is a special place.<br />
The occasion is a visit to the SCE&G<br />
Outdoor Classroom at Francis Beidler<br />
Forest in South Carolina’s Lowcountry.<br />
Designed to support the idea of teaching<br />
children about nature in a natural setting,<br />
the classroom provides ample space for<br />
experiments and hands-on learning.<br />
“We named it the SCE&G Outdoor<br />
Classroom as an acknowledgement of<br />
their many years of generous support,<br />
including a major gift to our capital<br />
campaign allowing us to purchase some<br />
critical habitat to expand the preserve,”<br />
