Greener Keener's Action Group Learning Project

I wanted to start contacting resources in Regina and around Canada, so I emailed Collin from take me outside, Jared Clarke from Wascana Authority, and David Suzuki Foundation in BC. Here is the message I sent to David Suzuki:
Hello There! I am a fourth year education student at the University of Regina, SK. I am in an environmental education course (first environmental class I've ever taken) and I am a part of an action group learning project. Our name is the Greener Keener's and our mission is to get ourselves and others outside. I wanted to write to the David Suzuki foundation in regards to finding resources and ideas of how to get our young people outside! What can my group do to make a change in Saskatchewan or on a larger scale, the World!?? We are very motivated students/future teachers, and we need to learn how we can make changes in our lives and be positive leaders. We need to make a strong relationship with nature in order to raise awareness for caring for it. Please help us if you have any information or ideas. Thank you so much, hope to hear from you soon. Please help us make a difference!
