As we rev up to celebrate Westwind’s 80th anniversary (the property was purchased in 1936, with the first camp program starting in 1937), we are also celebrating the Westwind Stewardship Group’s 10th year of owning and caring for Westwind. For the next year we will be posting photos and short articles about Westwind’s history, stories of stewardship long ago and recent, additional posts about the science and learning that occurs on a regular basis at Westwind, and various other stories related to the spirit and personal impact of Westwind. We are shorthanding the dual anniversary as “80/10,” and will also be hosting various events to commemorate. Stay tuned!
