Redfish 2012 begins...

We're back! The Redfish School of Change is back at the Little Slocan Lodge and on adventure. We are 18 students and three instructors - living and learning together in the Kootenays. We come from across BC and Canada, with a diversity of backgrounds, experiences, study disciplines, and ideas for our action projects.
The first few days have been filled with various activities including two fantastic guests from the Columbia Basin Trust who welcomed and introduced us to the region, Jeremy Down and a jam session exploring the metaphors in music relating to communication and leadership, and Shanoon Bennett who shared her expertise on the wild food and medicines of the natural world. We lowered a tent pole... We reached concensus on our group values... (kincentricity, commitment, growth and celebration) We shopped for 21 people for 10 days... We built a foot bridge over Mulvey Creek... It's been a fantastic first few days
as we get to know each other and dive deep into concepts, ideas, questions, and build new skills and relationships.
