FY-08 Participant Reflections on Conservation Boot Camp

Boot Camp participants reflected on their experiences during the FY08 Boot Camp sessions with some interesting comments:

  • “I never realized the importance of networking and contacts.”
  • “It’s great to go through the entire Planning Process without being driven by programs.”
  • “I now see how important it is to work closely with the landowner.”
  • “I came here thinking I knew a lot. The most important thing I learned over the three weeks here is that I learned how little I know.”
