The North Carolina Youth Conservation Corps (NCYCC) is accepting applications (www.ctnc.org/ycc) from youth ages 16 to 24 for 2015 summer crews. The crews begin on June 20 and end seven weeks later on August 8. The application deadline is May 15th but APPLY NOW because applications are accepted on a rolling basis and positions are already being filled.
The NCYCC is a partnership between the Conservation Trust for North Carolina (CTNC) and the Vermont Youth Conservation Corps (VYCC). NCYCC participants contribute hundreds of hours of hard work to improve and expand access to protected natural areas, so that more North Carolina families can connect with the outdoors. For many participants, it is a life transforming experience.
NCYCC crews work on high priority conservation projects, enhancing natural areas and making them more accessible for public use. Participants are organized into crews of 8 to 10 and work (and live) outdoors under the close supervision of highly trained leaders. The plan is to have four to five crews in 2015, and they will build trails, restore habitat, remove invasive species, and enhance local and state park lands across the state.
