Own the movement

Going to DC was a ton of fun, but the best part was the hands on volunteering! The Student Conservation Alliance gives summer jobs to inner city kids for doing volunteer work. Most of the kids grow up to volunteer a large chunk of time in adulthood. Volunteering with a program like SCA is an easy way to push for a healthier Outdoor Nation, not to mention a fun way. Put on a pair of coveralls, get stuck in the mud and tell me that you haven't had a good time.
