After a long day of traveling the
night before, the Tahoma team conducted a Sustainability ambassador student
meeting led by Kim McHenry! During this meeting, we not only discussed our
hopes and plans for the following year in Tahoma School District. We also
talked about what struggles we were facing at our individual schools and soon
found places where these struggles overlapped. And this new found communication
between the students of the Green Teams across the district helped us better
develop solutions to these problems by taking past experiences and applying
them to new situations from each other. The meeting as a whole was ground
breaking and we discussed many possible strategies to apply once arriving back
in Washington.

But that's not all. Later on in the
day, us students met up with Dawn Wakeley to discuss and plan for our Student
Network Meeting. In previous years at Camp Snowball, we have only had mild
success in connecting with other students from camp after the 5 day trip is
over. But this year we hope to connect with the other students all year long
through the use of technology in order to allow us to gather new ideas from
across the country while also sharing our work with them. At this meeting each
attending student will share the work that they are doing, and learn what
others are working on as well.
