Youth Conservation Corps
The primary mission of the Granby Land Trust Youth Conservation Corps (GLTYCC) is to help the Granby Land Trust complete high priority land management projects. Working outside, with peers, toward a common goal, can be physically and mentally rewarding; and many hands certainly make light work. The amount of work a group of eager teenagers can accomplish in a morning is remarkable.
Under the leadership of a GLT board member, volunteers help build and maintain trails and improve wildlife habitat. Work parties are held on weekend mornings, typically last two hours, and sometimes involve donuts.
The Granby Land Trust so appreciates the work of these volunteers. If you would like to join the Granby Land Trust Youth Conservation Corps, please send an email to info@granbylandtrust.org or reach out to the YCC's 2022-23 Team Captain Chas Orluk to learn more. Candidates should be at least 14 years of age.
