March Quarterly Meeting

March 26th at 7pm

This month's quarterly meeting, we will be announcing our latest ONE $1000 Scholarship recipient. We will also be having Harry "Skid" Crease as our speaker. 

Skid is an internationally respected educator, author, political commentator, newspaper columnist, storyteller, keynote speaker, workshop leader, and chair for global, environmental and outdoor education conferences.

His teaching career includes 20 years of classroom teaching at all levels, 10 years as Program Leader in Outdoor Education, 3 years as a course director in the Faculty of Education at York University, and 3 years as Experiential Education Program Leader for the Toronto Montessori Schools (Caledon-King Campus). He remains an active Ontario College of Teachers (OCT) member.

He continues to act as consultant for numerous organizations on experiential education and environmental issues, and is frequently featured as an inspirational speaker. He also continues to work regularly with Ontario Nature, Caledon Region Conservation Association, and the Simcoe District School Board.

Additionally, he was the Grade 7 teacher of our ONE Webmaster, Steve Cairns many moons ago. It will be interesting listening to him weave experiential outdoor education with environmental advocacy.

Following the presentation and discussion, we will conduct ONE Interest Group Business.
