Elemental Connections part 2 of 4:
FIRE

With flickering light, luxurious warmth, aromatic smoke - there's nothing like a crackling wood fire! I sure hope you've had the chance to see, feel, smell and hear one for yourself. Whether you're alone or with a bunch of people, there's something about a fire that warms both heart and soul. I like to call that feeling an 'elemental connection'.

Deanna will talk about Oh Canada!, our gorgeous land, what's going on, and some other great stories.

Writer: Deanna Fry, Ajax Ontario
A teacher for 16 years, an environmentalist and a volunteer in Ajax for a long time, Deanna loves getting groups of people together; "good things happen in communities when people of all ages come together! Especially when they connect with the natural environment around them, and take on projects that make the world a better place." At her current school, Lakeside Public School, their ‘Green Group’ helped make Lakeside the 137^th Green School in Canada!
Something special about Deanna: Deanna has a 21 year old daughter, Abby, who is an artist living and studying in Halifax, NS, whose creative vision, inspired art and passion for the natural world enrich Deanna's life more than she can say.
Deanna's passion: "I love to hike, go for walks and be outside. I’m so thrilled to be able to spend this school year working at the Durham Forest Environmental Education Centre, a residential centre where grade six classes come to stay for 2 ½ days at a time. In this wonderful place I get to share my passion for the environment with my favourite group of people; children!"
Deanna's message: “Get outside and connect with nature. Feel the sun on your face, the breeze in your hair and the ground under your feet. Use all of your senses and celebrate these moments deeply, in your heart and soul. Then let these parts of yourself guide your choices and actions in life. We are part of nature and nature is part of us! Let’s choose and act wisely now so the generations to come have as much to be grateful for as we do!”
