An interactive journal for SCA Alumni and Friends, August 2008
Conservation happens right where you live. It’s not just an ideal in a remote location. Whether you live in the beautiful expanses near Yellowstone or in downtown Houston, the need to connect with the land and our communities is essential. SCA addresses this vital link in our community-based Conservation Leadership Corps (CLC) programs. Find out more in this issue. As always, we welcome your feedback.

Wednesday, August 13 was an idyllic summer day -- the bright spot in weeks of endlessly gray, rainy weather – and the perfect day for SCA’s 4th annual Conservation Commencement at national headquarters in Charlestown, New Hampshire.

Conservation Begins at Home
|
 Sometimes conservation, like charity, begins at home. SCA’s community crews work to conserve and improve their own neighborhood parks and green spaces. They learn that conservation is not just something that happens far away in remote national parks. They learn how vital it is right in their own backyards and their own lives. And they gain a lifelong connection to the land and their communities. Your gift to SCA today helps continue and expand these important programs across the country.
