Appendix C 1 Mission Mobius and the Vermont Department of Health are partnering in an effort to provide resources and guidance for mentoring organizations and mentors across the state to incorporate some form of physical activity into their programs. This guidebook aims to help mentors and coordinators understand the importance of getting mentees active and aid them in finding ways to do so. While this mission is driven by the Healthy Vermonters 2020 goals that aim to reduce the number of obese youth to 8% by 2020, the ultimate purpose of this guidebook coincides with the inherent mission of mentoring, to enhance the lives of youth and provide them with a foundation for success. Getting Active 2 Ability Mentors ought to consider their own comfort level and the background of their mentee How will different activities impact their self-esteem and willingness to continue pursuing these experiences? Positivity To create a positive environment, the mentor must be comfortable and confident with the chosen activity Collaboration Mentors and mentees should work together to determine what types of activities are appropriate for their age, skill level, and interests You’d Be Surprised! When people hear the words “physical activity” they often think of organized sports or exercise. However, every day we are being physically active without consciously trying to be.

Within biophysical regions, the places are listed more or less north-to-south and by county. This list T includes all the places to visit that are mentioned in the natural community profiles, plus several more to round out an exploration of each biophysical region. The list of natural communities at each site is not exhaustive; only the communities that are especially well-expressed at that site are listed. Most of the natural communities listed are easily accessible at the site, though only rarely will they be indicated on trail maps or brochures. You, the naturalist, will need to do the sleuthing to find out where they are. Use topographic maps and aerial photographs if you can get them. In a few cases you will need to do some serious bushwhacking to find the communities listed. Bring your map and compass, and enjoy!

    110 Woodhaven Place Oberlin, Ohio 44074 28 July 1989 End-to-End Committee Green Mountain Club 43 State Street, P.O. Box 889 Montpelier, Vermont 05602 Hello: I am surprised, as I review my memories of twenty-one years of backpacking, to find that I have taken only five hikes in Vermont. Somehow of all the states and all the trails and all the terrains I have hiked, it is the Green Mountains which are, to me, the most varied, the most lovely, the most precious. Other backpacking trips are visits away; on the Long Trail I am at home. This explains, I am sure, why in those five trips (indeed, in only three of them) I have completely covered the Long Trail. With this letter I am applying for end-to-end certification. I have attached a brief report detailing my daily activities. Sincerely, Dan Styer 1 End-to-End Report Dan Styer 1982: Sherburne Pass to Camel's Hump June 21 Bus to Rutland, hitchhike to Sherburne Pass. Walk in about a quarter mile and camp. June 22 My first sighting of Braun's Holly Fern. At David Logan Shelter, a hummingbird flies among the Cow-Parsnip. Sleep alone there. Torrential downpour at night, during which porkie enters shelter. June 23 Rain on-and-off all day. My first sightings of Twisted Stalk, of White Bog Orchis (Habenaria dilatata), and of Three-toothed Cinquefoil. Impress a family at Sunrise Shelter by building a fire in the soaking wet woods. Slip and fall on wet puncheon, hurting knee. Sleep at Sucker Brook Shelter, which is full.
