We have a wonderful community of staff, youth, alumni, project sponsors, parents, and donors who make all the difference -- thank you! In 2006, we launched new programs -- Youth in Agriculture and Natural Resources Crews, Youth Leadership Retreats, Fall Crews, a Technical Skills Program and the year-round Conservation and Community Leadership Program, to name a few highlights. These crews, combined with our Wilderness, Roving, and Community Crews, accomplished almost 110,000 hours of service on public lands in every county in the state, building bridges, inventorying lakes, building trails, managing state parks and generally making Vermont a better place to live, work, and recreate. Much of our growth has been made possible by our move to our permanent home, the Youth Leadership, Education & Training Center, which is located in the big refurbished West Monitor Barn in Richmond, Vermont. As each week has gone by the facility has continued to take on more and more of the look and feel of the VYCC. The ground fl oor, where we store all our gear and tools, is used daily as crews now come and go on a regular basis all year long. One of the most wonderful things is that our new space is utilized by more than seventy of our partners for all sorts of meetings. As importantly, our year-round programs use every inch of the Center. We are doing more and doing it better than ever before. If you were one of those that made the Youth Leadership, Education & Training Center possible, your generosity lives on in the thousands of people who pass through each year. Thus, the spirit of our community is alive and well. New friendships and old continue to grow and the bonds that make the VYCC what it is are stronger than ever. Until this year we never had a place for our community to gather. I am thrilled to be able to invite you, whether an alumni, Corps Member, Field Staff, parent, or donor to visit our new home. We want you to feel like you can just stop in and look around, say hi, hike or ski our trails, or even use the wireless internet access from the parking lot! If you need an invitation, there will be start-ups and closures taking place for the fi rst time at the Center in 2007, a series of benefi t concerts this fall to help retire the mortgage, as well as our second annual Denim & Diamonds event in October. Be sure to watch our websites www.vycc. org and www.monitorbarn.org for further information. I hope you will stop by. Most appreciatively, Thomas Hark President [email protected] 3 Program Overview What is the VYCC? The VYCC is a non-profi t service, conservation, Crew Types and education organization. Our mission is to teach individuals to take personal responsibility for all of their actions. We accomplish this Roving Crews mission by forming small teams of young Roving Crews camp for four-week sessions and people who work with excellent adult leaders live full-time in the outdoors.

    2002 Yearbook and Annual Report Teaching individuals to take personal responsibility for all of their actions -The VYCC Mission Statement A Message from the President Dear Friends, I am pleased to report that the VYCC has never been stronger. We made it work with our extraordinary staff, board members, and volunteers who are extremely talented, committed, and a lot of fun to work with. Thank you! While this is a time when we can take great pride in our accomplishments, it is not a time when we can rest, even for a minute…the needs in our communities are greater than ever and growing, and the Thomas Hark with children Eli (left), VYCC is an important part of the answer. Zachary (middle), and newborn Rosie (right). Our mission of teaching individuals to take personal responsibility for their own actions, what one says and does, is absolutely vital and essential to creating strong and healthy communities. It is these lessons learned in the Corps that will make the difference in the years and decades to come. While it is true that we operate state parks and do incredible trail and other natural resource work, and that this work all by itself makes the VYCC vital to Vermont, the true value of this organization is what individuals learn from their experiences, and then take with them and use the rest of their lives…it is the values of respect, hard work, and personal responsibility that become imbedded in an individual after a stint in the Corps. Many people think of the VYCC as that small group who built a local trail…though few realize over 350 Staff and Corps Members were enrolled in 2002 and completed over 80,000 hours of important conservation work on 800 distinct projects in every corner of Vermont.

Within biophysical regions, the places are listed more or less north-to-south and by county. This list T includes all the places to visit that are mentioned in the natural community profiles, plus several more to round out an exploration of each biophysical region. The list of natural communities at each site is not exhaustive; only the communities that are especially well-expressed at that site are listed. Most of the natural communities listed are easily accessible at the site, though only rarely will they be indicated on trail maps or brochures. You, the naturalist, will need to do the sleuthing to find out where they are. Use topographic maps and aerial photographs if you can get them. In a few cases you will need to do some serious bushwhacking to find the communities listed. Bring your map and compass, and enjoy!
