The PA Parks and Forests Foundation and other partners are sponsoring a student symposium on April 12 entitled, "Getting Something Done…The Invisible Leadership of Maurice Goddard" at the Grace Pollock Performing Arts Center, Camp Hill, Pa.

The Camp Hill School District, The Lion Foundation, and the PA Parks & Forests Foundation have joined in creating the annual Maurice Goddard symposium series for K-12 students and the Camp Hill community.

Honoring the longtime Camp Hill resident and patriarch of Pennsylvania State Parks, the symposium uses Goddard as a role model to explore science, public policy, history, citizenship, environment, and communications.

This year’s inaugural discussion will be entitled, “Getting Something Done, the Invisible Leadership of Maurice Goddard.” Moderating the panel discussion will be the President of the PA Parks & Forests Foundation, Marci Mowery.

Goddard’s leadership traits of vision, tenacity, and problem solving while working with diverse groups will be explored as a potential model for 21st Century leadership.
