The Superior Watershed Partnership announces its 2008 Youth Conservation Corps.

The Youth Conservation Corps is available to work on a variety of conservation, recreation and restoration projects throughout the central Upper Peninsula for free.

Local units of government, community organizations and outdoor recreation operations are eligible to submit possible conservation projects for consideration.

Slated to begin mid-June through mid-August 2008, project work sites must be located in Marquette, Alger or Baraga counties. The youth crew, made up of 17-24 year olds, is provided at no charge for selected conservation projects.

Please contact the Superior Watershed Partnership with potential projects by June 16, 2008.

Funding for the YCC is provided in part from Michigan WORKS!, the Reynold’s Foundation, and the Keweenaw Bay Indian Community. For more information please contact the Superior Watershed Partnership at (906) 228-6095.
