Lake Superior Conservation Corps
This program ran from July to September and was devoted to meeting the natural resource needs around Lake Superior. The corps was comprised of 18 young adults from Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan. Some of their work included surveying shoreline erosion problems from Duluth to the Canadian border, constructing a 270-foot erosion control wall at Temperance River State Park, re-routing a hiking trail on Madeline Island, and park land rehabilitation for the City of Marquette, MI.
