This program encourages new ideas and innovative solutions, including event planning and partnership development. The AmeriCorps VISTA member will work with theLCTHF in creating various nationwide activities and events with a focus on volunteerism and trail stewardship. Events can include, but are not limited to: trail cleanup days, educational programming, assisting with festival preparations, and more. This engagement will include the next generation with the goal of inspiring them with the Lewis and Clark story, a story of bravery, adventure, science, and the outdoors. The AmeriCorps VISTA member will also work with tribal leaders across the country to include their story and history in any and all events. Along with tribal leaders, this program asks for increased partnership and sponsorship with local and national organizations and businesses.
