Belize Journal - Spring 2011. Saturday, April 9, 2011. It’s birthday party time! Allison (Northwestern, ’12) turned 21 on March 25th, and it was due time to celebrate. To close out the week, CCSP Belize brought in a taste of South Dakota country. Oh yes, the mighty country music resounded in th. E classroom-turned-line dance hall. Boot-Scootin’ Boogie, anyone? After a few slow tut. Orials we were soon searching for faster songs to boot scoot to! Creation Care Study Program. Tikal: From Stones to Stories.

http://ccspbelizes11.blogspot.com/2011/04/experiences-from-internships.html
Belize Journal - Spring 2011. Monday, April 11, 2011. Here at CCSP Belize, our students get the privilege to take what they have been learning and apply their knowledge in some way, shape, or form. To do this, they complete two week internships! Each internship is designed for the student based on their interests, majors, and passions, which means each internship is very unique. This semester we once again had a variety of internships, and many stories to share once they returned to Nabitunich! As a biol...

Belize Journal - Spring 2011: A Discourse of Tropical Seasons: The Cashew Tree
http://ccspbelizes11.blogspot.com/2011/03/belize-we-found-our-first-cashew-fruit.html
Belize Journal - Spring 2011. Thursday, March 24, 2011. A Discourse of Tropical Seasons: The Cashew Tree. We found our first Cashew fruit! Native to Brazil, the tree was brought to India in the 1500’s and spread throughout Southeast Asia, Africa, as well as Central America. It is now common around Belize and is used for a variety of purposes from food to medicinal. It’s also the only fruit with its seed placed on the outside of the fruit, strange right?

Belize Journal - Spring 2011. Tuesday, February 22, 2011. Reading Week: Soaking the Sponge. After Stream Ecology, it was great to mix up the schedule a bit. During Reading Week/Environmental Literature pt. 1, students could chip away at the reading list at will in preparation for Environmental Literature pt. 2, Forest Ecology and Marine Ecology. Just a book, a hammock, the chatter of the Kiskadee birds, and a cup of tea and we were set for the day! Creation Care Study Program. Monday, February 21, 2011.

Sometimes walking was the best way to take in our surroundings, especially during the golden evening hour. Ng facilitate some campfire games after dinner. While being tons of fun, pick-up futbol games remind us of the importance of staying hydrated! Although we’ve only scraped the surface of what Belize has to offer, we’v...Now with ...
