Fire flickers in a lantern placed in the snow with dark dusky background to announce the Winter Solstice Outdoor Teacher Retreat, Sat. Dec. 5 at Robinson Nature Center by the Association for Nature-Based Education.

Winter is on the way! Join us in Columbia, Maryland for an inspiring day of training full of ways to help children welcome the winter season. This hands-on training will awaken your senses, kindle curiosity, and spark more ideas for outdoor learning with young children.

Our Professional Learning Retreats bring together experts in the field of nature-based education to share ideas and practices, with a variety of workshops to choose from. ANBE will provide a professional development certificate at the conclusion of the event (approved for 6 MSDE clock hours). Please dress for the weather, as most of this training takes place outdoors, rain or shine. Coffee/tea with lite breakfast and lunch are included on Saturday, but remember your reusable water bottle for drinks throughout the day.
