CEC and its partners have just completed a new sustainable environmental education center to better serve the Whitewater Valley and beyond! The new facility expands Cope Environmental Center’s capacity for environmental programs, serve as a community gathering space, and act as a powerful teaching tool for sustainable living in East-Central Indiana.
