WHYY asked five individuals to tell us about their visions for the Delaware River Watershed what it is, and what it could be.
Keisha Scovens is the co-founder, with sister Tarsha Scovens, of Let’s Go Outdoors, whose mission it is to connect city communities to outdoor experiences.
My twin sister, Tarsha, and I grew up in South Norwalk, Conn., a very different place today than it was then. For us, being outdoors meant playing Red Light, Green Light or Freeze Tag or Double Dutch in the street. It wasn’t until an overnight Girl Scout camping trip when we were 12 that we even engaged with a forest.
