A Special Meet-and-Greet Opportunity

Trails is hosting three groups of high-school aged SCA youth this summer; they will each be here for a 15-day period. Each group has 2 adult leaders and a different set of 8 youth from JBLM and the surrounding areas. Trails will be putting them to work, but also want to provide them a broad experience, introduce them to the many disciplines within the Park, and increase their interest and connection to this awesome place. Many people are unfamiliar with the dynamics of the Park and the inter-workings of how we function as a city, so the plan is to have at least one person from each work group make contact.

WHAT YOU DO:
Simple---Stop by and introduce yourself

WHAT YOU RECEIVE:
Admiration of youth
Warm fuzzies from the positive impact on our youth
Pride in promoting the Park and your contribution to its success

YOUR TIME COMMITMENT:
One to five minutes

YOUR TIMEFRAME:
July 1st - 13th (not July 4 or 9). Longmire
July 22nd - August 2nd. Ohanapecosh
August 12th - 24th. Longmire
(They may be inaccessible many of these days)

LOCATION:
Available in the field until 4:30
Available at their campground after 4:30
