Planned Activities
Wanted! Enthusiastic and engaged volunteers to help the Conococheague Institute spruce up for the Spring. Volunteers will engage in painting trims and frames of historic structures that serve a key role in preserving early American history, as well as further historic maintenance and construction.
Outdoor conservation activities will include invasive removal, tree care, garden plantings and weed removals, and trail and bridge maintenance.
Volunteers who like animals can also assist in the maintaining and cleaning our goat and sheep pasture.
All tools and training will be provided by CI, but be sure to bring adequate clothing for the season.
