IRS990/Desc0Conservation Corps - 2018 was another busy year filled with change and new beginnings. The pro crew tackled a number of shoulder season projects including river access steps and riparian buffer plantings at the East Burke dam removal site, an Americans With Diabilities Act (ADA) compliant trail at the Burke Mountain summit, restoring a nature trail in partnership with the Highland Lodge in Craftsbury, and trail patrol on the scenic Cohos trail in northern New Hampshire.NorthWoods continued its long-standing partnership with the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) by managing YCC crews at 7 National Wildlife Refuges (NWR) throughout New England, including the Rachel Carson NWR in Maine, a first in 2018. Over the course of the summer the local 6-person NorthWoods crew wheelbarrowed over 90 tons of total material to complete a Universal Access Trail in Moose Bog, a project funded by VT Forests Parts & Recreation. The NorthWoods Back Country Crew in partnership with The Green Mountain Club, and under the guidance of Luke OBrien of the VT Department of Forests, Parks & Recreation, completed the new Bluff Ridge Trail (opening June 22nd 2019) - a project which has been nearly 20 years in the making. This years crew of 2 leaders and 4 members impressively cut about 6 miles of new trail on the Bluff Ridge, north of Island Pond, Vt. This is the only trail of its kind in the Northeast Kingdom, connecting the Middle Mountain and Gore Mountain trails and opening up a contiguous 23 mile trail system on some of the most remote public lands in the state.The conservation and remediation of our watersheds is a vital element of a healthy environment. Thanks to funding and partnerships with state and county programs, nonprofits, local watershed associations, and private landowners, NorthWoods was able to complete 28 watershed improvement projects throughout the region in 2018. During the spring tree planting season, 4,310 trees and shrubs, 2,450 livestakes and tubestock, and 283 herbaceous perennials were planted to help stabilize banks, improve water quality, and restore riparian and lakeshore habitats. In June, our dedicated Watershed Crew started work on completing water quality improvements in 6 Vermont watersheds: the Memphremagog, the Upper CT River, the Missisquoi, the Passumpsic, the Winooski, and the Lamoille. Projects included installing stormwater management systems on Class IV roads in Jay, at the Fenton Chester Arena parking lot in Lyndon, and improving river accesses in Worcester and Fairfax. The labor completed by the Watershed Crew was funded through a Clean Water initiative Program (CWIP) grant from the VT Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC).In addition to work funding through CWIP, Northwoods partnered with the Northeastern Vermont Development Association on Class IV Road Erosion Inventories, the Connecticut River Conservancy, Burke Mountain Resort, and private landowners.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Education-Groups and Camps - In 2018, NorthWoods education team had the opportunity to strengthen our ties with the local community, through expanded school partnerships and collaborations with partner organizations. Our after-school programming has increased, bringing us to schools across the three counties of Essex, Orleans, and Caledonia. The opportunity to explore with the same group of students each week allows NorthWoods staffers to connect with each student, and to connect these students with the unique natural resources of their own backyard, from Lunenburg in the Connecticut River valley to Troy under the shadow of Jay Peak, and to our neighbors just upstream and downstream in Brighton and Charleston.We have continued to grow relationships in the neighboring Burke Mountain community, where we co-host summer camps with Kingdom Trails and Burke Mountain, guide free weekly kids mountain bike rides, manage the Dashney Nordic Center, and engage with students from the nearby towns of Newark, Lyndon and Burke-through school and club programs. In 2018, we worked with the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Conservation group to launch an outreach series on conservation and the traditions of hunting and angling, including both skills and ethics. While we spread the NorthWoods banner across our neighboring communities, 2018 also rejuvenated our work and exploration here on our home campus-where the trails, bunkhouse, demonstration forest, Lang Brook and Clyde River are the key components of the NorthWoods Experience.
