Volunteer Opportunities For Teens With McHenry County Conservation District

Teenagers looking for volunteer opportunities can find a myriad of activities with McHenry County Conservation District.

An informational meeting will be held Sunday, Dec. 4 from 1-2 p.m. at Prairieview Education Center, 2112 Behan Rd. in Crystal Lake.

Teen volunteers at the Conservation District assist at special events, school field trips, become plant or frog monitors, and help out with seed collection, restoration workdays and more.

The Conservation District offers great opportunities for teenagers 13-19 who are looking to earn some volunteer hours for college applications, National Honor Society or who want to explore the conservation field. Many volunteer opportunities are flexible to your schedule, are one day events or offered seasonally. Come find the activity that fits your needs and interest level.   Note: some volunteer positions may require an adult to participate, so please have an adult attend the informational session with the teen.
