Celebrating and Engaging with Nature this Winter
Erika Pratt from Ann Arbor Parks and Recreation will present a talk on winter walking in Ann Arbor parks and how to connect with nature. Erika will share
these opportunities and the benefits of park related recreation, relaxation or adventure
and get you pumped up to get outside to bring more nature into your life! 

AJ Davidson, co-owner of Bivouac, and staff will assist us in finding the
correct clothing and gear to keep us warm and safe this winter. Erika Pratt manages the GIVE 365 Volunteer and Outreach Program for the Ann Arbor Parks &
Recreation Services Unit. With a Master’s Degree in Parks, Recreation and Tourism Resources/
Urban Affairs, Ms. Pratt takes leisure seriously and is passionate about public green spaces and recreational opportunities for all the ways they enrich
life. 

She has worked in parks and recreation her entire career, working for the City of Ferndale; overseas in the Marshall Islands; Pleasant Ridge; before coming
to Ann Arbor seven years ago, at Novi.

Bivouac is an outdoor clothing and gear shop and fashion boutique all in one. Bivouac was founded in 1971 by Ed Davidson, and has been outfitting the
Ann Arbor community for 49 years.
