Hey gang,
Join YESC for a ground-breaking week of career exploration in the environmental field! YESC will meet with professionals in different environmental careers to learn about their jobs, education, and extracurricular activities that qualified them for their position. The goal is for our YESC members to learn about different environmental careers they can pursue and what it takes to prepare for those career paths. Below is the schedule for the week:
Monday: We will spend the morning at UMLY preparing for the week, and the afternoon will be spent with Land Studies as we are invited to help with the UMLY Property Management Plan.
Tuesday: The certified arborists of Shriner Tree Care will be taking YESC on a project in the Cassatt Preserve at UMLY as we help take down a tree. Hard hats included!
Wednesday: YESC will get a backstage tour of the Ornithology Department at the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia, PA to observe rare wildlife specimens! We will even have some special guests meeting us there!
Thursday: The Refuge Manager of John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge in Philadelphia, PA will give us a private tour of both the refuge and the Cusano Environmental Education Center!
Friday: YESC will meet with the Natural Resource Manager of the Brandywine Conservancy for a tour of the beautiful Waterloo Mills Preserve to learn how he manages the preserve. We will spend the afternoon at UMLY.
Please join us by registering at the Welcome Center ASAP! This is a program unlike anything we've ever done with YESC and will be an incredible experience to prepare you to enter the environmental field!
