20th Anniversary Open House Celebration

Photo Opportunities Available

Marin Conservation Corps invites the public to attend an Open House celebrating the 20th anniversary of the agency at the San Rafael location, 27 Larkspur St. from 4:30 - 7:30 pm on Thursday, July 25.

"We look forward to hosting the community and showing off our corpsmembers and programs to the public. This is a great opportunity for people from Marin to see the wide range of services that MCC provides to the community," said Marilee Eckert, Executive Director.

Corpsmembers from each of the 8 programs - Natural Resources, Corps to Career, Environmental Education, Habitat Restoration, For Earth's Sake, Education, Community Recycling and the summer camp program Project Regeneration will have interactive displays and a variety of foods representing different ethnicities will be served. Alumni corpsmembers will be part of the program to tell about their experience at MCC.

Marin Conservation Corps is the nation's first local conservation corps. Since its founding in 1982, thousands of young men and women have enrolled in the job training and education programs offered by MCC and have contributed over 2 million hours of service to Marin's environment, schools and to the safety of the community.

MCC, located in San Rafael and Novato, is a training and education program for young adults (18-30 years of age). MCC crews are responsible for building and maintaining hiking trails, working to reduce fire and flood hazards, restoring wildlife habitats and collecting recycling throughout Marin. MCC's Environmental Education Crew is dedicated to fostering an ethic of environmental and social responsibility and service among children, youth and community members. The Marin Conservation Corps' education program offers corpsmembers the opportunity to obtain their high school diploma or continue lifelong learning.
