My first teaching position was at a small private school in an upscale Manhattan suburb. One of the school trips was to Frost Valley YMCA in the Catskill Region of NY and I volunteered to be a chaperone. At the Frost Valley site the focus is on team building and eco-friendly choices. In the dining hall all people must weigh their food waste and separate it at the end of each meal. There is a competition to see which group can reduce their waste by the greatest percentage by the end of the stay. Inspirational!
