    New Adventures for Saturday Academy’s Laura Elmore

    Our very own Chief Development and Marketing Officer, Laura Elmore, embarked on an exciting expedition this January. Laura will be touring all 62 National Parks as part of her personal journey to explore and share methods for healing in nature or ecotherapy.

    ASE Success - Made Possible Online!

    Despite the uncertainties presented by COVID-19 and the unexpected need to transition to an online platform, 61 virtual internships provided STEM career opportunities for high school students across Oregon. Though it seemed impossible to virtually deliver the same quality apprenticeships that define the ASE program, this summer it proved not only to be possible but also deeply enriching for mentors and mentees alike.
