Volunteer: Trail Work Half Day
Volunteer with Lakes Region Conservation Corps members for a half day of trail work from 9:00am to 1:00pm! We will focus on removing blowdowns, clearing branches that encroach within the trail corridor, brushing in portions of the trail where the path is unclear, and checking blazes along the way.
As always, this work is weather dependent. Should any changes to plans arise, we will provide updates. We encourage help from volunteers who love the outdoors, enjoy hands-on conservation work, and are excited to work with our LRCC members!
What To Bring
Volunteers should bring appropriate clothing, water, bug spray, and food.
Youth Instructions
Children must be accompanied by an adult.
Location
The lead for the day will contact you with information about where to meet along with any event specific information a day or two before the day of the event.
Lakes Region Conservation Corps
The Lakes Region Conservation Corps (LRCC) is an AmeriCorps service program that develops skills and experiences for conservation professionals. LRCC members are the driving force behind the Squam Lakes Association’s conservation efforts. The program provides hands-on conservation work experience and numerous certifications over a broad range of areas, which ensures that LRCC members are capable of independently approaching a variety of tasks in the environmental conservation field. Members remove invasive species from the Squam watershed, manage and act as caretakers at our backcountry campsites, maintain the SLA’s 50+ miles of trails, educate the public on local and regional conservation initiatives, spearhead reports on conservation efforts, lead SLA volunteer crews and ensure the daily functioning of the Squam Lakes Association’s programs.
