About Service Learning Crew

Service Learning Crew (SLC) provides education and experience in citizenship, volunteerism, community service, and self-development for youth based in Routt and Moffat Counties. Service projects include gardening, planting trees and flowers, trash pick-up, light trail work, and other community beautification projects. SLC enhances youth's sense of belonging and community connection through meaningful outdoor-based service projects, education, and group recreation activities. 

​​

​ Sessions are two weeks long, Monday through Friday, 8 am to 4 pm. Crews have ten to twelve mixed-gender crew members (youth) who are supervised by two crew leaders.  Crew leads supervise , facilitate education curriculum, and help engage youth in the  conservation-based projects in the community.   Each session has a registration fee of $200.

Scholarships are available to cover the $200 registration cost.​​

​

Each day, crews participate in 2-3 hours of volunteer activities, 1-2 hours of education, and 2-3 hours of crew recreation time. There is an optional two-night overnight on the second Wednesday and Thursday of the session.  All camping gear and food for the overnight stay is provided. ​
