2008 Field Season Photos

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

Our summer field season ended on August 17th with 12 crews returning to the Leadership, Education & Training Center at the West Monitor Barn to hand in their green shirts and say goodbye to the VYCC for the summer. Each crew gave a presentation to an audience of parents, headquarters staff, Corps Members and Crew Leaders from 2008. Below are some photos from the 2008 Field Season.

Catamount Trail Association in the Running for National Grant

Monday, June 30th, 2008

Out of nearly 100 submissions from non-profits throughout the United States, the Catamount Trail Association (CTA) has been selected as one of the top five organizations to share in Redwood Creek’s commitment to preserve, protect, and provide access to the great outdoors. The general public will be urged to cast their votes for one of these non-profit organizations. At the end of the competition the non-profit with the most votes will be granted $50,000 and the runner-up $10,000. The voting can be done by going to the Redwood Creek Great Outdoor Project website where you can place your vote for the Catamount Trail Association. Please vote and encourage other to do the same.

The VYCC has partnered with the CTA on many projects over the years and would be delighted to see them win this award. From constructing bridges in Stowe and Somerset to maintaining and relocating miles of trail, the VYCC has worked on numerous CTA projects since 1995. Please show your support by voting for them in this contest. It will make a difference for the future of the CTA and potential projects for the VYCC!
