The Corps Network recognizes Great Outdoors Month with our Great Outdoors Day of Service in Washington,
DC. Friday, June 16, 2017 marks our 4th annual Day of Service. The purpose of this event is as follows:
1. Inspire people to get outside and contribute to the preservation of America’s natural spaces.
2. Raise awareness about the role of service in protecting and improving our public lands.
3. Celebrate the service of Corpsmembers and other volunteers who help protect our natural treasures.
4. Make a difference. We hope to make a dent in the backlog of maintenance projects on National Park
Service properties in DC, helping our partners at NPS focus on other priority projects.
Youth from Corps across the country, as well as friends of the Corps movement, will participate in the Day of
Service. The event will involve maintenance and improvement projects at NPS sites throughout DC.
Additionally, we’ll have a chance to hear from inspiring speakers. The day before, Corpsmembers will be on
Capitol Hill to educate their members of Congress on the personal and societal impact of their Corps service.
You can help us celebrate the impact of service on our public lands and highlight the value of America’s
Service and Conservation Corps by supporting this year’s Great Outdoors Month Day of Service!
About Corps
About The Corps Network
Corps are locally-based organizations that engage
young adults and veterans in work-based service
that addresses community and environmental issues.
Through their service, Corps participants – or
“Corpsmembers” – gain hands-on work experience;
build their résumé; earn certifications; and develop
vital skills in leadership and communication.
Corpsmembers often work on public lands and
waters, completing projects focused on habitat
restoration, trail building/maintenance, urban
forestry, disaster response, and green infrastructure.
Established in 1985, The Corps Network is the
national association of service and conservation
corps (Corps). Our 130+ Corps provide youth and
veterans the opportunity to serve our country
through work-based service on public lands and in
rural and urban communities. The Corps Network
supports Corps by advocating on their behalf,
providing access to funding and projects, and
offering expertise in Corps operations and
programming. To learn more about The Corps
Network, please visit www.corpsnetwork.org.
