Beyond A Book has now completed three adventure-linked education projects. Each project has had a creative, passionate team of biologists, educators, and adventurers. We are currently building our ButterBike team.

Sara was part of On The River, Spoon In The Road, and bike49. She is also part of the ButterBike team.
