SUMMARY:Virgin Islands National Park\, USVI Week 2 - Volunteer Vacations 2023
DESCRIPTION:Go beyond Virgin Islands National Park’s stunning white-sand beaches! Hike to historic plantation sites to learn about a challenging past when sugar and enslaved labor dominated life on the island. Visit the Indigenous Taino’s ancient petroglyphs. Snorkel coral reefs to discover hidden marine life. Two-thirds of the island of St. John is national park\, making it a unique destination for visitors! \nThe volunteer trail crew’s scope of work includes trails maintenance\, clearing of historical sites\, native tree planting projects\, invasive species removal\, and trash/debris removal. Volunteers need to be in good physical health and prepared to work from 8am to 2pm in hot and humid conditions. Every participant should have close toed shoes\, a day pack\, sun protection\, long pants\, a mask\, and capacity to carry a minimum of 3 liters of water. The Friends of Virgin Island National Park will supply all necessary tools\, training\, gloves\, and transportation. \nThere is no experience needed to join a Volunteer Vacation! Your expert hosts will provide detailed instruction\, tool demonstrations\, and project oversight throughout the week. All you need is a willing attitude and to be in good physical condition to participate in moderate physical activity for approximately 6-8 hours a day with plenty of breaks\, at your own pace. Find out more about what it’s like to join a Volunteer Vacation and other frequently asked questions here. \nAHS acknowledges with gratitude that this project takes place on the traditional lands of the Taino and Kalinago (Island Carib) peoples past and present. We honor the land itself\, the Indigenous communities who have stewarded this land for generations\, their deep and sacred connection to these lands\, and those who continue to steward these lands today. We offer this land acknowledgement as the first of many steps to stand as an ally and amplify Indigenous voices. We invite the American Hiking Society community to join us through continued efforts to support Indigenous communities and learn more about the history of the lands on which we live\, work and recreate.
