IRS990/Desc0The NorthWoods Conservation Corps provides hands-on, conservation based education and employment opportunities to local youth in the communities in which we work. In 2016, NorthWoods hosted 11 crews working in 5 New England states - Vt, NH, MA, ME, and CT. Crews included three local crews (NorthWoods, Burke and Backcountry) and 8 Federal Youth Conservation Corps (YCC) crews Crewsworking on National Wildlife Refuges. Crews worked on diverse projects such as: riparian restoration, invasive species control, wildlife habitat management and trail building and maintenance. Two additional off-season Pro crews planted trees, patrolled trails and maintained forest boundaries in the spring and fall.The NorthWoods Conservation Corps worked with the Connecticut River Watershed Council on 5 different riparian buffer restoration projects in the Upper Valley region of Vt and NH; planting 3370 trees and shrubs along with 150 live willow stakes. Working with the Natural Resource Conservation Service and USFWS Partners for Wildlife program, the Corps also planted 3,500 trees and shrubs to restore over 11 acres of riparian buffer in the Upper Missisquoi River Watershed. In total, 6870 trees and shrubs were planted by the crew over 5 weeks (421 hours).During the summer, 55 youth and 22 crew leaders completed 17250 hours of conversation work and 1430 hours of environmental education and employment training. Locally, our crews completed several significant trail projects, including: the relocation of the Wheeler Mountain Trail in Sutton, the construction of the 4 mile Trio Trail in Nash Stream Forest, and the installation of a 90 foot boardwalk at Moose Bog in Ferdinand.Northwoods crews installed green stormwater infrastructure to protect water quality and improve access in the Passumpsic River Basin; improved streambank stability, access and boater education on the Connecticut River Paddlers Trail, Northern Forest Canoe Trail, and Androscoggin River Trail; and planted trees to improve riparian habitat on the Connecticut, Wells, Waits and Missisquoi Rivers.NorthWoods managed federal Youth Conservation Corps (YCC) crews at 4 Divisions of the Silvia O Conte National fish and Wildlife Refuge (Nulhegan, Pondicherry, Fort River, and Springfield); and one crew each at the Umbagog, Stewart B McKinney, Missisquoi, and Moosehorn National Wildlifes.NorthWoods designed and constructed an extensive trail relocation at Wheeler Mountain, the Backcountry Crew spent its summer in northern NH, completing a new section of the Cohos Trail in Nash Stream (the Trio Trail) and improving the newly resurrected Deer Mountain Trail in the Connecticut Lakes region.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0In 2016 the Conservation Science branch of the Forest Stewardship Institute had several unprecedented achievements, in addition to continuing its past work to protect the natural values of northeastern Vt. The first of these achievements was completion of a Hazard Mitigation Plan for the Unified Towns and Gores of Essex county, a multi-year effort whose plan was officially adopted early in 2016.In a continuation of more than a decade of water quality work in the Lake Memphremagog watershed, we planned 1855 trees and shrubs along river and lake shorelines over a total of 4.63 acres in 2016 through an Ecosystem Restoration Grant. In 2016 our staff also continued coordination of the Upper Connecticut River Watershed Cooperative Invasive species Management Area (UCCISMA) carrying out a second year of pre- and post-treatment photo monitoring of Japanese Knotweed treatment sites.In 2016 we continued to build upon past forest management work and education, highlights on our 1480 acre Spitzer Demonstration Forest included starting a new NRCS contract for timber stand improvement thinning on 24 acres, invasive plant control, and completing an irregular group shelterwood timber harvest. The forest was also used to teach a number of groups about sustainable forestry, including Kroka Expeditions and Paul Smiths College. Staff also traveled widely to extend the reach of our forestry education, a few examples being a class at Sterling College in Craftsbury and a 6th year of participation in the Women can do Expo in Randolph, teaching 50 to 60 high school aged girls the safe use of chainsaws.Our forestry consulting services continued to grow in 2016, with our client base surpassing 80 private, municipal, and non-profit landowners owning nearly 14000 acres in northeastern Vermont. As in the past, 2016 forestry clients ranged widely; from couples who had recently moved to the area, to multi-generational farm parcels, to town ownerships. Project types also varied considerably from the forest management plans, to low-impact logging operations, to invasive plant control. A public workshop in October toured a site in Charleston where NorthWoods forestry staff have been working with a private landowner on a multitude of silvicultural and wildlife habitat projects for the past decade.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0In 2016, there were more than 3500 of these wide-eyed learners, participating in 220 unique programs.Approximately 70% of this programming takes place away from the NorthWoods campus - at neighboring schools, hosted at community organizations, and at our favorite outdoor destinations-rivers, mountains and lakes where we can apply conservation skills, environmental inquiry, and outdoor recreation. Partnerships with local school districts have enabled us to be more accessible to more schools - through the ENCORE after school programs, and summer school experiences.Our favorite programming brings students to our East Charleston campus. The addition of the Bunkhouse expands the access for groups to explore the NorthWoods campus. A large meeting table, comfy bunks, radiant heat, windows to the woods and meadow, and a woodstove are all key features that help to create this dynamic space.Campers are dropped off with a dry bag, a bit shy and nervous, prepared (in gear at least) for a week-long trip down the northern Connecticut or Clyde River, part of our Northern Explorers program, with our partners at the Northern Forest Canoe Trail.Camp is a sandy beach and enroute, campers have learned about river features, technical skills of paddling, and how water quality compares in different sections of the River. Theyve learned about team work, and overcoming obstacles of bad weather and disagreements. All these highlight learning on the go espoused by our Education staff. The River changes you. The bug bites and sun tan will fade, but callused paddling hands stick around a long while, and that feeling (yes, that one!) of accomplishment transfers from the River to the next pursuit-whether its a hike, an impossible math test, or daydreaming for your next expedition.Summer camps remain a lively and vibrant part of the NorthWoods summer. We are happy to continue to grow our partnership with Burke Mountain, enabling us to offer camps utilizing their bike park, and facilities, and situated with greater access to the southern side of the Northeast Kingdom.
