“Wind Senators” at PIMMS

KidWind completed its second week-long WindSenators training session in Malta, NY on August 7th. There are now have 32 very capable trainers from a variety of backgrounds in fifteen states! And two of them are from PIMMS. Bob Borello, Director of Science and Energy Programs for PIMMS and James Sulzen, a PIMMS Consultant who has specialized in alternative energy Sources each gave a week of their very busy Summers. Teachers explored and critiqued the new WindWise curriculum, played with piles of KidWind gear and were introduced to a variety of topics by taking tours of the GE Wind Training facility and listening to guest lectures by leaders of the anti-wind movement. And just what do all these newly trained WindSenators mean? Now we’ll be able to offer more trainings, get to more local conferences and hold more KidWind Challenges!
