We are committed to building this project and managing this land with the utmost
respect toward its pristine nature, and passing that respect on to all who enter
its gates.
We are committed to real science, including partnerships with local and regional
science centers for meaningful data collection and documentation, and by reporting
(graphing, mapping, counting, etc.) for the advancement of Bay science and preservation.
We are committed to providing students with an interactive experience, where they
are never bored by learning, or by their instructors.
We are committed to serving students and teachers in communities that lack the resources
to provide a residential environmental education experience.
We are committed to technology and its interface with student experience to plot
and correlate data, merge databases etc., in order to fully integrate the NorthBay
experience with the environmental science world at large.
We are committed to precursor learning and especially follow-up learning for schools
and students through a superb interactive website, and ongoing relationships with
the staff, bringing students, teachers and schools back again and again to their
NorthBay experience.
We are committed to raising up a new generation of Maryland "soon-to-be" adults,
who are profound thinkers and doers around the prominent issues facing our environment
and especially our Chesapeake Bay.
