When?
- Work days will take place on Saturday, May 3rd and Saturday, May 17th & are open to anyone high school age or older. Our “work week” will span from Tuesday, May 13th through Thursday, May 15th & will be geared towards college aged volunteers, but will be again be open to anyone high school age or older.
- Each of these days/weeks will include an optional overnight stay the night beforehand at basecamp in one of our yurts! This is to allow folks coming from further away (or who just want a fun campout) to be settled in and ready for the day of work ahead.
