PCEE News and Updates

The Pennsylvania Center for Environmental Education’s September newsletter, EE Connections, is now available.  PCEE e-mails the newsletter early each month with news and important information for the environmental education community. 

Thanks to all the organizations, agencies and individuals which provide EE services and share EE information from across Pennsylvania. If you would like to contribute to future EE Connections issues, please submit your article before the 15th of the month.  Articles are to be of statewide interest.  Inclusion in the newsletter is subject to space availability.  If you know anyone who would benefit from receiving EE Connections, please complete the on-line form or call 724-738-4555. If you would like to be removed fromthe mailing e-mail us at pcee@sru.edu.
