PLI helps middle school students "rock and row"
The Public Lands Institute is working with the Clark County School District to provide instruction for its Project Adventure Curriculum in physical education classes. Students from select middle schools are learning about stewardship and new ways to enjoy being physically active on public lands. Secondary Physical Education Facilitator Hayden Ross has created a video pictorial of the rock climbing and kayaking activities.
The project is funded by the Michael Jordan Inspiration grant and the Junior League of Las Vegas, with additional support from Niketown Las Vegas, Nike, Vegas PBS, Woodson Dermatology, and the CCSD School-Community Partnership Office.

UNLV and PLI Highlighted in the Management of Southern Nevada’s Public Lands
The Southern Nevada Agency Partnership (SNAP) produced the Southern Nevada Agency Partnership Overview of Accomplishments. SNAP, created in 1997, is a partnership of the four federal land management agencies – the Bureau of Land Management, National Park Service, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, and the U.S. Forest Service. The report credits PLI with becoming “an academic leader in creative land management practices.”
If you would like more information on any of the projects, we would be pleased to provide it to you. Contact us at publiclands@unlv.edu .
