A little about your instructor: My name is Lauren Crowe, and I am a Park Ranger with the National Park Service. I recently moved from Tennessee to Fairbanks. While in Tennessee, I taught middle and high school students. Now, with the National Park Service, I create educational materials for all ages. In my free time, I like to hike, read, and complete puzzles. Join me on an aviation adventure this summer!
