2013 Conservation Leadership Corps Program for High School Aged Students 15-19 yrs old from DC, VA, & MD.
SCA's Conservation Leadership Corps Program will have crews of high school students working in local parks one weekend a month from January 2013-May 2013. As a member of a CLC you will:
- Volunteer one weekend a month throughout the school year in the Washington DC Area and earn 100 Community Service hours.
- Meet one weekday a month for 2 hours after school to participate in Green Jobs Curriculum training.
- Build trails, restore river and lakefront environments, and conserve habitats.
- Learn about your environment through weekend camping excursions
- Give back to your community through service projects
- And, we will encourage you to join an all-expense paid SCA National Summer Crew to experience the outdoors away from home in National Parks Across the country.
Transportation will be provided to and from a metro stop. Lunch and work gear (hats, longsleeve shirts, gloves, helmets, and tools) will also be provided to all students in the program.
