Kevin Reuther

"I was lucky to spend summers on a lake in the woods "up north" as a kid, and that continued through college and my early twenties when I was a camp counselor taking students on canoe and camping trips and developing environmental programs. The Northwoods -- the smells, sounds, solitude -- have always offered a simple, calming gift. Years later I realized that I'd been experiencing what the Japanese call shinrin-yoku ('forest bathing'). It's a privilege for me to get to work for an organization dedicated to protecting these special places and resources."
