This is a great program. The marketing company I work for is doing a campaign for the Ad council and I read recently that they did a study which stated that kids spend 50% less time outdoors than they did 20 years ago.

The Forest Service is embarking on a campaign called "Where the Other You Lives" which is trying to get kids outdoors as well. They have a series of PSAs as well as a website designed to show the benefits of getting to know nature.

The website can be found here:

The U.S. Forest service has updated their campaign "Where the Other You Lives". They now have a contest to reward kids who depict their experiences in nature.

The rewards for doing this will be north face gift cards for the children's families!

Daily Horoscope for December 17

Pisces

If you want to make the best of the day you should lock yourself away and work on your own. This will make it easier to concentrate, especially if you're trying to focus on something that's fiddly or difficult. If you've got something on your mind at the moment it will be worth having a quiet word in someone's ear because they'll help you to get things into their proper perspective.
