Copper River Stewardship Program

This hands-on program takes 10 youth from communities throughout the watershed on an in-depth adventure through the Copper River watershed.  Participants met with representatives from a wide range of fields and perspectives along the way, learning about what makes this watershed so special, as well as the challenges the region faces.

After completing their journey, each participant created a unique project to share their experience with others.  We hope you enjoy the projects we have posted here and invite your ideas and feedback for future stewardship programs.

This year's trip will take place July 30-August 8, 2010 and will include 4 days rafting on the Gulkana River, as well as field trips in the Copper Basin and Cordova.  Download an application here, or contact Kate at CRWP for more information.
