Starting the New Year at Headwaters Outdoor School

Tim Corcoran, Founder Headwaters Outdoor School

I'm sitting here by our pond at Headwaters Outdoor School. It’s January 3rd, 2012 and this is going to be the first of many blogs that I'm going to be adding to our website. The land right now is incredibly beautiful. All around me the sun is shining down upon the water, the trees, and the grass, and I look around and I realize that my dream from my childhood came true. This land I dreamed of since I was nine years old, this land I dreamed of my whole childhood, this land I never knew how I would get it, in fact this land I thought was in Alaska or Canada when I was young.
