Sometime in his toddler years Bill started camping with his dad and thus began his love for outdoor recreation. His dad, an avid boat builder and outdoor enthusiast, was always encouraging Bill’s love for the out of doors. Because of his parents support, Bill discovered the joy and value of wilderness adventure at the young age of 12. He now has 13 years of experience planning and executing back country adventures, and training staff to lead life enriching experiences such as backpacking, climbing, white and flat water canoeing, caving, and the like. Bill’s strengths are identifying teachable moments and guiding reflection experiences that insure maximum learning and fulfillment. Bill’s favorite pastime is spending a canoe trip with his family and friends, and taking the occasional opportunity to stand upon his environmental soapbox. Bill also likes working in his community. Recently Bill enjoyed organizing a citywide clean up and facilitating an “art with recycled materials” workshop for youth. Bill’s motto: Be like water and seek your own level.
