The outdoors activities company Adventure East and the conservation nonprofit Kestrel Land Trust recently provided an amazing experience at Lake Warner in Hadley for “Bigs” and “Littles” involved with CHD's Big Brothers Big Sisters of Hampshire County. Our matches spent a sunny day paddling canoes and enjoying the tranquility, while meeting turtles, frogs, and a beautiful grey heron. Before instructions on safety and technique, everyone enjoyed snacks and refreshments to energize them for the adventure. Kids today need mentors more than ever.
