ACTIVITIES Crew members have many opportunities to increase their awareness and understanding of the environment, develop stewardship habits that benefit our natural world, learn about conservation careers, and develop leadership, teamwork and positive decision-making skills. You will participate in educational activities each day and recreational activities each weekend. Our program promotes learning and personal development through active participation in outdoor, hands-on learning experiences. On the weekends crew members try their hand at a variety of recreational activities, such as canoeing, hiking, fishing, visiting museums, and learning about local history and culture.
