Management and launch of the NC Science Trail-In 2022, we began partnering with science education entities across the state to bring awareness to SciEd opportunities for the public. Our new partners included non-profit museums and wildlife centers, the state Aquariums, the state Zoo, and the state Museums, as well as some state parks. All of these ventures provide great science education opportunities for visitors and residents to NC, but it is difficult to find all of the information in one place. Our goal was to partner with these organizations, bring awareness to their programs, and reach out to the public through both in-person and digital means, providing entertaining, intriguing, and educational information that would encourage more science engagement across the state. By December 2022, we had partnered with 63 organizations statewide and planned 17 events with partners for April 2023. We spent most of the fall recruiting partners and building the website required to provide partner information to the public. 10000 33609 Adult Education Classes - We taught an "Environmental Microbiology of North Carolina's Natural Places" Course at the NC Arboretum. 475 250 33859 April C Smith PhD President 20 17497 0 0 Kristen Nightingale Director 1 0 0 0 Elizabeth Gilleland PhD Director 1 0 0 0 Gitanjali Tenja PhD Director 2 0 0 0 X 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NC April C Smith PhD 1204 Village Market Pl 245 Morrisville NC 27560 9198026103 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 0 0 1000 206 10145 11351 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 10000 15000 25000 0 0 1000 10206 25145 36351 36351 475 475 36826 136826 0.98710 0.9593 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10 I taught an adult science education class at the NC Arboretum in Asheville, NC Schedule A, Part III, Line 12 $100,000 was for a contract to perform SciEd services for the State of NC.

As such, it was decided that In Situ Explorers needed to adopt a "Conflicts of Interest" statement to protect the organization against any conflicts that may arise. The board voted on and adopted the new "Conflicts of Interest" Statement on December 15, 2022.
