Alternative Spring Break is a 4-day long service-learning experience designed for college students and young adults (18-39). This year we will be camping and stewarding at Lake Mead National Recreation Area!
We will camp by the lake at Boulder Beach Campground and will spend the weekend doing restoration projects like working at Sundog nursery, visiting an archaeological site for petroglyph surveys, and cleaning up Boulder Beach!
Participants will get the chance to meet with local environmental experts, learn to camp, and get the chance to experience public lands stewardship in a way not many people get to experience!
Friends of Nevada Wilderness provides tent, sleeping bag, and other necessary gear FREE OF CHARGE for ASB participants to borrow. We also enjoy delicious, gourmet camp meals and desserts each night.
Interested in a career in the outdoors, conservation, recreation, or STEM? We'll be visited by representatives from our land management and non-profit partners to discuss their career paths and ways to get started on your dream career!
