Thanks also to Pat Bonner, Office of Water, and Jamal Kadri, Office of Sustainable Ecosystems, for their help in locating EPA-produced materials and for directing me to appropriate staff. EPA regional folks, including Greg Gholson, Sally Edwards, and Ken Williams sent materials and provided useful leads. Clearly, corps program staff, supervisors and sponsors do not have a lot of time on their hands. Thanks are also due to those environmental educators and restoration practitioners who suggested materials and offered guidance. Reviewers provided insightful comments that were incorporated into and strengthened the Guide.
Every production team needs someone with an artful eye.
Steve Bluestone lent his to this project. Special appreciation to Matthew Calderone for his comments, edits and tremendous contribution to this project. Thanks also to Steve for his fine job of editing and proof reading. Thanks to Cricket Korsower, former Wisconsin Conservation Corps crew leader and Bea Jay Panke, former WCC director and personnel coordinator, for sitting down with me for a few hours to reflect anew on what works and doesn't work in the field. Jule Stroick, a friend indeed, lent her finely honed organizational skills and technical knowledge to this project.
