LEAVE NO TRACE TRAINER COURSE

As more people use parks and recreation facilities, LEAVE NO TRACE guidelines become even more important for outdoor visitors.   The Leave No Trace plan helps people to be more concerned about their environment and to help them protect it for future generations.   Leave No Trace applies in a backyard or local park (front country) as much as it does in the wilderness (backcountry).

THIS COURSE IS OPEN TO BOTH YOUTH AND ADULTS!!

Bring your youth leaders to establish a youth-led Leave No Trace program in your unit (minimum age is 14)
