The Midwest Outdoor Heritage Education Expo (pronounced MO’-hee) presented by The Outdoor Heritage Education Center (OHEC)(OH’-heck), non-profit conservation organization is inviting educators and their students to a perfect opportunity for learning outdoors before the school year comes to an end.
Upcoming Dates:
May 8th, 2024 at Havenwoods State Forest in Milwaukee, WI and May 15th and 16th, 2024 (pick the day that works best) at the MacKenzie Center in Poynette, WI. Students can explore mentored programs so they can develop outdoor skills and enjoy lifelong outdoor activities. Connect with educators, trained safety instructors and other volunteer mentors who provide an enriching and engaging experience connecting students to Wisconsin’s natural resources, outdoor heritage and lifelong skills.
Event is Free! WWF is a proud supporter through its education efforts.
At the expo, educators, conservation volunteers, and DNR professionals will help keep students engaged while increasing their understanding, appreciation and sense of stewardship for natural resources, Wisconsin’s outdoor heritage and related activities. New activities added every year with stations that emphasize hands-on learning experiences where students can participate free in any or all of the outdoor skills activities.
MOHEE is also a great place to meet local representatives of conservation groups and DNR programs, discover additional partners and educational resources available to you, and to connect students with ongoing mentored outdoor skills training programs to keep them actively learning throughout the summer and beyond. Do you have someone in your group that has a temporary or permanent mobility issue? Maybe a student, chaperone, mentor or teacher? Outdoor wheelchairs (OWC) can be requested from:
