Founding Elder
Pam Hawes serendipitously found our school when Jon Young gave his first Monday Night class in 1995. Having always loved being outside, she found the words that Jon spoke resounding in her heart and soul. Since then, Pam has completed most of the classes that Wilderness Awareness School offers, including finishing the Kamana Naturalist Training Program in 2006 and participating in the first several years of Tracking Intensives. These studies have opened up a whole new world for her, and she definitely sees the environment with different eyes, ears and senses.
Seeing the damage to our human family when it is separated from its natural home, Pam would love all children to be exposed to these universal teachings. She is keen to support the school in whatever ways she can.
