The Earth T.A.S.K. Crew is an adjunct program of The Open Studio. ETC was founded by three local women: Melissa Carney, Veronica Grannan and Nichole Moranda. T.A.S.K. stands for our core values of Teamwork, Accountability, Service and Kindness. This summer, with help from the Englewood Farmers Market, we facilitated outdoor and classroom activities that included hiking, wading, exploring, paddle boarding, field observations of flora and fauna, scavenger hunts, journal writing, nature and recycled art, geocaching/orienteering, soil/air/water experiments, lessons on self-esteem, team building games, and group service projects such as mangrove/shoreline cleanup, a mosaic to be donated to Lemon Bay Park, garden stepping stones to be donated to several community locations, an experimental archaeology exhibit on the Calusa to be displayed at Lemon Bay Park  and Kiddie Geocache Trail Construction at Lemon Bay Park.
