“My favorite aspect of New Jersey is its biodiversity, as it’s remarkable just how many ecosystems are found within its relatively small area which leads to such a rich variety of plant and animal life. Within NJ Round Valley Reservoir holds a special place in my life. I have camped, dove, and hiked there for my whole life as it changed and grew alongside me further fueling my drive to pursue Environmental Science.”

“My favorite aspect of New Jersey is the opportunity to travel, hike, and camp in diverse natural settings. My favorite natural place in NJ is Stephens State Park, as it has been the best camping spot I have had the chance to stay at. It is home to a beautiful stream, where you are able to sit by and relax, along with amazing camping spots. The work of RNJCC is important to me because my love for nature drives my desire to positively impact the land and empower others to do the same.”
