AP reports that Michael Gould, superintendent at the Air Force Academy has made religious tolerance a priority at the facility, including providing a outdoor space for Wiccans, Pagans and other "Earth religions" to worship with nature.
A double circle of stones atop a hill on the campus near Colorado Springs has been designated for the group, which previously met indoors.
"Being with nature and connecting with it is kind of the whole point," said Tech. Sgt. Brandon Longcrier, who sponsors the group and describes himself as a Pagan. "It will dramatically improve that atmosphere, the mindset and the actual connection."

Anyone is welcome to visit the new worship site but it should be treated as a religious structure, he said. A formal dedication is planned in March.
