    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.
